Artist [Comments]


> December 21 [A couple of breaks of sunshine over the next couple of hours, what little sunshine there is left, remember this is the shortest day of the year. Looks like the clear skies hold off till later on tonight. It will be brisk and cold. Low temperatures will range from 29 in some suburbs to 38 in midtown. Not a bad shopping day tomorrow. Sunshine to start then increasing clouds still breezy with a high near 50. Couple of showers around tomorrow night, er, tomorrow evening into early tomorrow night, otherwise partly cloudy later on low 30. For Monday, windy and colder with sunshine, a few clouds. High 42 and then for Ch, er, Christmas eve mostly sunny but with a chilly wind, high near 40 degrees. For Christmas itself cloudy with a chance for rain or snow, high 36. 43 degrees right now and cloudy. Relative humidity is 55% in midtown. Repeating the current temperature 43 going down to 38 in midtown.]

> December 22 [Well, that is does, ay, uh, this is a very intense low and it, uh, located just south of Jones Beach right now. It's going to be sliding off to the east northeast here as we, uh, go into the evening hours. But the WINS Doppler radar is just loaded, uh, from the city back to the Delaware River. You actually have to get back to Allentown to find the end of the storm. But it's not going to be moving in any great hurry. We probably have a good 4, 5 hours of good, steady snow and at time it's going to be coming down hard. And, uh, therein lies, uh, the problem here cause, uh, it's possible that, uh, the snow rate can be so heavy at times that we could easily pick up an inch or two in just one hour's time. So you've got a couple of hours of that and this, eh, one to three, eh, could be exceeded, uh, but right now we're looking for one to three in the city and Long Island, three to six in many of the western northern suburbs and even more than that further northwest. So just allow for some extra time to get around here this evening. It's gonna be quite messy for the next several hours. Things will start to improve after nine o'clock. It will be diminishing to flurries from west to east, probably all over by midnight. Stays very windy right on through the night and then tomorrow will turn mostly sunny, uh, but still quite windy with some gusts to 40 and 50 miles a hour, a high of 38. Right now we have snowflakes and 33 and a north wind at 15 to 25 miles an hour. Repeating the current temperature 33 going down to 30 in midtown.]

> December 23 [We're looking at a fair amount of sunshine as we go through the afternoon, temperatures though, staying on the chilly side looking for a high of near 40 degrees today. It's partly cloudy tonight. Dry weather continues right through the weekend. We'll see a mix of clouds and sunshine for tomorrow the high of 40 degrees once again. Sunday begins a, um, warming trend, looking for a high of 44 with partly sunny skies. Also some sunshine for Monday with a high up to 48. New Years eve we're gonna get up near 50 degrees. Currently in Central Park mostly sunny skies, 35 degrees. The humidity 64% and the wind is northwest at 7 miles an hour. Repeating the current temperature 35, headed up to 40 in midtown.]

> December 24 [It'll be gusty and cold the rest of the day but sunny for the most part, high temperature 38. Watch for a refreezing as the sun goes down. Clear and cold tonight diminishing wind, low 24 in many suburbs to 30 in midtown. Tomorrow sunny to partly cloudy high 38. Then a little milder for the weekend reaching 42 Saturday with sunshine and 44 on Sunday. No more storms until next week and it may not snow again until next year. Currently winds out of the northwest at 12 gusting to 24 miles per hour. Relative humidity 69%. 32 degrees in midtown heading for 38.]

> December 25 [We'll we are going to have a very tranquil weekend for the most part, uh, today, uh, sunshine, some clouds. Up to around 40 degrees, uh, more clouds probably tomorrow, uh, there'll be a few flurries moving through the area later tonight and first thing tomorrow morning, not expecting to cause any problems but, uh, nonetheless a couple of flurries passing by. 32 for a low in midtown tonight then tomorrow temperatures again up near that 40 degree mark, uh, for a high with, uh, wind picking up during the afternoon. So a little bit more uncomfortable tomorrow from a temperature standpoint. On Monday a limited amount of sunshine, high 42. More clouds for Tuesday. A breezy, milder day high 50. Watch out for some rain at night, especially if you're headed out to Times Square. Currently in Islip it's 30, 28 in Belmar. In Central Park it's 30 degrees under a partly sunny sky, the humidity at 63%, winds west at 10. Repeating the current temperature 30 degrees going up to 40 in midtown.]

> December 26 [Well mostly clear skies, cold conditions for tonight. We're headed down to a low of 30 in midtown, 22 in many suburbs. Then as sunshine shares the sky with some clouds tomorrow, we're headed up to a high of 40. More in terms of clouds move in tomorrow night, setting the stage for a cloudy day Tuesday but a southwesterly breeze will bring in warmer air so, believe it or not we're headed up to a high of 52. It may shower on Tuesday but more likely look for some rain Tuesday night for New Year's Eve celebrations as well as for New Years Day on Wednesday. The high Wednesday 50. 41, mostly cloudy, as we speak, in Central Park, the relative humidity 57%, wind northwest at 10. Once again 41 headed down to 30 in midtown.]

> December 27 [We have, uh, cloudy skies, uh, we'll see a few light showers a touch of drizzle overnight, uh, temperatures will be staying, uh, well above the freezing mark. Watch, uh, going, well, north of the city, though, across, uh, Orange, uh, Putnam, into northern Fairfield county, uh, temperatures, uh, right around 30, 32 degrees there and there is, uh, a bit of icing taking place right now. And for tomorrow mostly cloudy and milder with a chance of a shower, high of 52. Tomorrow evening, uh, looks like, uh, just a chance of an evening shower but, uh, as we get on toward midnight, uh, it looks like it'll be dry, uh, with, uh, temperatures, uh, around 43 degrees at midnight at Times Square with a light northwest wind. Wednesday New Years Day turning cloudy, uh, we will get into some steadier rain, probably late in the day or in the evening and that will go, uh, right on into, uh, Thursday, high temperature on Wednesday 44. Right now we have 40 degrees and a cloudy sky, with an east wind at 6. Repeating the current temperature 40 going down to 35 in midtown.]

> December 28 [Well, we are looking at a, uh, cloudy mild evening, also foggy, uh, especially on Long Island, uh, this is just the mild air coming on a southerly breeze off of the, uh, cold ocean which is, uh, causing, uh, that fog bank actually from the Verazano Narrows bridge, all the way out Long Island. And, uh, temperatures tonight will be staying in the 40s, it'll be around 47 at midnight in Times Square, may see a shower or two about that time as well because there is going to be a cold front moving through during the middle of the night. And then tomorrow, uh, a storm on the southern end of that very same front, uh, is going to paying us a visit so what is just going to be a shower, a bit of drizzle in the morning hours, uh, becomes a steady, cold rain as we go through the day. Temperatures aren't gonna move much, uh, we'll stay in the lower 40s, might even drop a bit in the afternoon. It's gonna get to be windy, the rain heavy at times tomorrow night, uh, even the possibility that we have, uh, some icing problems, uh, before it ends very late tomorrow night. The low temperature of 32. Then on Thursday, cloudy, windy, uh, some leftover drizzle, the high of 36. Right now we have 52 and mostly cloudy with a light west wind. Repeating the current temperature 52 going down to 42 in midtown.]

> December 29 [Um, I'm currently looking at 1010 WINS Doppler radar showing rain of a moderate intensity in some cases continuing throughout the tri-state area. Our storm system right now is located off the Jersey shore. And the general movement on these, well, they're not moving much at all. Eventually the precipitation will be lifting out to the north and east on Thursday morning, as will the storm, uh, but it's still quite a bit of rain to go especially up in the Hudson Valley, Rockland, Westchester counties, northern New Jersey. And there are winter weather advisories in effect overnight for the, uh, potential for slick travel because of freezing rain and some sleet, so, not the nicest of nights, really anywhere, um. Union County, you're under a flood warning overnight so, um, a lot of melted snow and rain combined causing problems. We're going to get a break tomorrow by mid-morning everything should be done but it'll be a windy and cold day and then Friday, that's when our next storm system comes in and it looks like it'll be a snow-producer. That'll last into Friday night. 37 in midtown right now, relative humidity 96%, north wind 12 miles per hour, raining and 37, heading down to 32.]

> December 30 [James, a cloudy, cold blustery day coming up today, uh, northerly winds, uh, bringing colder air into the region and what makes that interesting is there's also another storm brewing, this one coming out of the southwest, uh, out of the middle of the country now and we think that means snow will begin late tonight. It'll continue tomorrow although probably change to rain and sleet for a while in the city and costal areas and then end tomorrow night, we think one to three inches of snow can accumulate on average across the metropolitan area. Go up to Interstate 287 three to six inches seems likely and north of there, six inches or more. Saturday behind the storm partly sunny, blustery and chilly with a high in the thirties. Right now it's thirty-two and cloudy in Central Park, temperature today going up only to thirty-five.]

> December 31 [It's a messy start here, Brian, un, we've got, uh, quite a variety of conditions right now, ranging from just an all-out snow storm in northwestern New Jersey into, uh, northern Westchester and Fairfield County, Connecticut, uh, but you get a little bit closer in you find mixed precipitation, snow, sleet, even some freezing rain and you get inside, uh, the Garden State Parkway into the city and out to Long Island we're just dealing with a cold, wind-driven rain right now. Uh, this, uh, mix is going to be going over to snow from west to east as we go through the night, uh, in the city though it's probably going to take until after midnight and, uh, at the same time the storm is going to be, uh, almost, uh, over, so we're not not not looking at much in the way of an accumulation of snow in the city or on Long Island, maybe a coating to perhaps an inch, uh, but the further northwest you go the more snow you are going to see and, uh, tra, uh, travel problems. Uh, temperatures, uh, in the city getting down around the freezing mark. And then for tomorrow, uh, this system will be up, uh, east of Boston by morning, uh, and then hustling away, all that's gonna be left here is a few morning flurries, otherwise a lot of clouds and a cold wind. 36 for a high, partly cloudy for tomorrow night. Sunday it clouds up once again with a high of 36 and just a chance we could see a little bit of snow or just some flurries late Sunday and Sunday night. Right now 33 with, uh, rain and a northeast wind at 20-30 miles per hour. Repeating the current temperature 33 going down 32 in midtown.]

> January 1 [Well it wasn't that bad of a storm in New York City proper and certainly not, eh, in south Jersey and on Long Island in terms of snowfall or or wintry precipitation you go really north of Interstate 84 all the way up to Interstate 88 in New York State and that's where all the damage is done, generally 2-3 feet of snow in that corridor. Most of it's done, we're still seeing on 1010 WINS Doppler radar a little bit of light snow in eastern parts of Westchester County and in Fairfield County but accumulations minimal. Just watch for slippery spots over the next couple of hours this afternoon, leftover clouds and a high of 36. Tonight, clearing. We'll get down to 28 so watch for icy spots, some of that slush refreezing in the suburbs. Tomorrow the clouds return high 36 and we may see a little light snow or flurries late tomorrow or tomorrow night. Then clouds and flurries for Monday, high 38. Clouds and some sun Tuesday. At the moment 29 in White Plains, 32 in Islip, 31 with light snow in Central Park, relative humidity 96%. Winds are out of the northwest at 6 miles an hour. Repeating the current temperature 31 going up to 36 in midtown.]

> January 2 [And we are going to end up with some snow as we go through the afternoon and evening hours, uh, maybe it moves in sometime late this afternoon and could go throughout the night tonight. Coating to an inch of snow is expected for most of the area with this event. Another storm moves through late tomorrow into tomorrow night and once again brings a small amount of snow into the region. By Tuesday flurries early in the day, windy with some sun in the afternoon. Wednesday and Thursday will be considerably milder with temperatures making it, uh, well, into the middle and upper-40s by Thursday. We are looking at temperatures again in the 30s at this point throughout most of the area. We're looking at about, oh, 30 exactly, in White Plains, 33 in Islip, and 33 in the Park. Relative humidity is 69%, mostly sunny right now in New York City. 33 right now. We are going to go to 36 in midtown today.]

> January 3 [Well, it's mostly light precipitation that, eh, we're seeing on WINS live scanner Doppler radar and it is all in the form of snowfall in spite of temperatures getting up above, uh, the freezing mark today, it's going to remain snow, but it is continuing to taper off, especially across North Jersey and there's most likely going to be a few hours respite within the, uh, snowfall this afternoon. High temperature 36 degrees. Most roadways just staying wet. What I'm cautious about is later on tonight. Cold front marches in from eastern Ohio, western Pennsylvania. Temperatures dip back down below freezing to a low of 26 degrees. So you get what's wet freezing and you get a covering to an inch of snowfall on top of that. Be cautious outside. Tomorrow windy and cold, clouds, sun, high 32, AccuWeather RealFeel temperature is only in the teens. Still windy Wednesday with a high of 42. Right now 33 Islip. 32 degrees flurry action Central Park, going to 36 in midtown.]

> January 4 [It's blustery and it's cold outside this morning and it's going remain that way throughout the day today. Clouds and a few peeks of sun. The, uh, air temperature will not get above freezing and when you weigh in the effect of the wind and the cloud cover that AccuWeather RealFeel temperature is generally going to be in the teens. Tonight some milder air will begin, uh, to push toward the area. It will eventually make itself felt but at first it will produce a period of snow tonight, a covering to an inch can occur, even in midtown. Outside of the city, uh, an inch to maybe a couple of inches. Then tomorrow turns partly sunny, windy and milder, up to 40. We'll take a run at 50 on Thursday, back to about 40 on Friday and then blustery and, uh, colder but, uh, dry over the weekend. Right now it is 27 degrees and mostly cloudy in Central Park. The humidity is 60%, winds from the north at 12 that makes the AccuWeather RealFeel temperature 16. Again the current temperature 27 going up only to 32.]

> January 5 [And what we have here tonight is, uh, brisk conditions under partly to mostly cloudy skies, uh, relatively mild, uh, temperatures, uh, staying above freezing all across the region tonight, low of 38 in midtown. And a very mild day coming up tomorrow, partly sunny, windy, 50 in the afternoon. Enjoy it, it's going away, uh, cold air is going to be plunging in here tomorrow night and Friday, uh, Friday once again gusty winds but, uh, we will have the sun out but a high temperature of only 38. And then we will step it down again over the weekend. Lots of sunshine both Saturday and Sunday but brisk and cold with a high both days around 30 degrees. Right now we still have 43, a cloudy sky with a west wind at 8. Repeating the current temperature 43 going down to 38 in midtown.]

> January 6 [If you're a warm weather fan today's your day, uh, but, uh, try to get out and enjoy it cause it's not going to be repeated again for a while. It's windy today. That wind will be gusting frequently to 30 miles per hour, occasionally to near 40 miles per hour. The temperatures will be up and above 50 in a lot of places through the middle of the day and this afternoon. Tonight a cold front passes through, uh, temperatures drop into the 30s tonight, stay in the 30s tomorrow, despite sunny intervals. There'll be a gusty wind tomorrow also. As for the weekend, it'll be dry but cold. No worse than partly cloudy, high temperatures around 30, 32. Nighttime lows in the city down there 20 and down near 10 in the colder suburbs. Right now it's 47, cloudy in Central Park. Temperature today going up to 50.]

> January 7 [James we were talking Jets, uh, just before, uh, going on the air here. By the way for the football game on Sunday in Oakland it'll be cloudy. Temperatures will be in the 50s. Could be a little bit of rain, uh, around the Oakland San Francisco area as well. Around these parts no rain and no snow in the forecast either but plenty of cold. It'll be partly sunny, blustery today, the temperature slowly dropping. Steady to slowly falling, probably down into the middle 30s by the end of the day. Into the low 20s tonight. The both days of the weekend are sunny but cold with high temperatures only around 32. Right now it's 41 and partly sunny in Central Park. Temperature today going down to 36 by evening.]

> January 8 [Well just a cold night in progress here, mostly clear skies, uh, we'll start the day tomorrow with temperature in the low to middle 20s. And we'll see intervals of clouds and sunshine tomorrow with the wind picking up. And a frontal system, which is now in the upper Great Lakes. High around 38 in the afternoon. That front will move through here quietly. Skies will clear once again later tomorrow night, uh, windy low 20s for an overnight low. And then just a blustery, colder day Tuesday with a good deal of sunshine and high only 28 degrees. Uh, we will be in the 20s again on Wednesday. Clouds and some sun. Brisk. Maybe, eh, some flurries. Uh, that'll be another front moving through and behind it, uh, a dry cold day Thursday with a high of 30 degrees. Currently we have 27 in Islip. 29 and clear in Central Park, a west wind at 6. Repeating the current temperature 29 going down to 26 in midtown.]

> January 9 [We are locked into a cold weather pattern now that's going to last all week and probably for the next couple of weeks. Every now and then we'll get a day like today in which temperatures moderate modestly. We'll get up close to 40 this afternoon, although there will be a gusty wind. Then a fresh batch of arctic air will arrive tonight and temperatures by daybreak tomorrow down to near 20 with wind blowing and despite sunshine tomorrow and Wednesday we're only looking at high temperatures around 30. So continuously below freezing from tonight, uh, probably right into if not through the day on Thursday. It'll cloud up Thursday and there is a chance for some snow or flurries along about Friday. Right now it's 26 and partly cloudy in Central Park. Humidity 63%. Wind, uh, from the southwest at 12, that makes the AccuWeather RealFeel temperature 15. Repeating the current temperature 26 going up 38.]

> January 10 [Nice and sunny outside but it's cold and it will remain cold for the rest of the day today, the rest of this week, and probably most of, if not all of next week. Mostly sunny, though, for the rest of the day today with a high about 30. Then clear tonight. Low 20 in the city but down into the teens in the suburbs. Partly to mostly sunny, cold tomorrow, high near 30. Increasing cloudiness Thursday and there is a chance for a period of snow Thursday night into Friday morning. That's going to depend how far north the storm, uh, we do expect to be in the southern states decides to come and we'll certainly keep you posted. Right now it is 23 and mostly sunny in Central Park. Temperature today going up to 30.]

> January 11 [Well, Kath, and that four day forecast contains much of the same. Just cold weather coming up, uh, for the foreseeable future. Right now cloudy skies across the area. They're gonna stay mostly cloudy as we go through the overnight. Temperatures drop off to 20 in midtown, teens in most suburbs. Then for the day on Wednesday clouds can break for some sunshine at times and there may be a couple of flurries as well but temperatures can only manage the upper 20s for our highs later on Wednesday afternoon. Also only in the 20s on Thursday. Thursday is dry with sunshine followed by increasing clouds and and then Friday morning we may see a little bit of snow or flurries but some sunshine returns for the afternoon. Friday's high 28. Right now it's cloudy and 25 in Central Park, the humidity 50% and the wind is from the west at 9 miles an hour. Again, the current temperature 25. It'll go down to 20 in midtown.]

> January 12 [Well, uh, Cheryl, on this Thursday morning early we have a clear to partly cloudy sky and of course it's been cold, it is cold, it will continue to be cold, seems like forever. But, uh, the question now is snow: when will it occur, how much will we get? I think the amounts will be on the light side. Of course, what is the definition of that? An inch or less in the city and perhaps upwards of three inches on eastern Long Island. When will it happen? Well, it should all get started about twenty-four hours from now, perhaps a little sooner than that. It's ba basically gonna be a, uh, storm out over the Atlantic, which will be pointing some of its moisture in our direction late on This Thursday night and early Friday we'll see that light snowfall. The temperature heading down to 19 in midtown this morning. Later today our high 30. And it looks like Friday and Saturday, uh, temperatures will be in the upper 20s as the cold air, uh, snow or no, that's a mainstay. 22 in midtown right now. Relative humidity 55% the wind west 10 miles per hour, making it feel like 11. Clear and 22 heading down to 19.]

> January 13 [Well, uh, Paul, right now the visibilities are up just a little bit, uh, 2 miles, for instance at Newark and LaGuardia. Uh, the snow coming down lightly - it was an hour ago but visibilities have improved a little bit and this a sign of course that the, uh, snow is going to be much lighter and letting up here over the next few hours. Uh, really I think, eh, whatever, uh, slippery conditions there have been, well, by the morning rush hour they'll be gone because the roads will be treated definitely by then. So, uh, not much of an impact on the morning commute. Still, though, when all is said and done most locations getting around an inch of snow. Later today we will see some sun. It will become windy after a low this morning of 21, the high later today 32. Very cold on this Friday night, the low 15 in midtown. Uh, we haven't been 15 in Central Park in over two years. And there will be lots of readings in the single digits in the suburbs. Looks like a cold weekend coming up. Temperatures Saturday in the 20s. Right now 23 in midtown. The relative humidity 96%. Light and variable winds. Snowing lightly. 23, we're heading down to 21.]

> January 14 [Well, it's going to be moonlit for the first part of the night but we're going to see the clouds increase as a cold front heads eastward across, uh, Pennsylvania and New York. And eventually, uh, there could be some flurries breaking out as well. Low 16 in midtown, 6 in many of the suburbs. Any flurries should depart by the afternoon tomorrow. Clouds, some sun, brisk and cold. The high of 28. Mainly cloudy tomorrow night with a low of 20. A bit of snow or flurries to start on Monday, otherwise clouds and sun, high 32. And for Tuesday and Wednesday bitterly cold again with some sunshine. High both days 21. We're at 21 right now, humidity 45% under clear skies, the wind from the west at 5 miles per hour. Repeating the current temperature 21 going down to 16 in midtown.]

> January 15 [Well, Doug, more cold weather today and also more cold weather for much of the upcoming week. Temperatures, uh, in the mid and upper 20s for the most part right now, headed up to a high of 28 degrees in midtown for the day today. We will see clouds and occasional sunshine. There may be a few flurries late tonight into tomorrow morning. Tonight we're going to see temperatures drop down to between 16 and 22 across the tri-state. Then for tomorrow after the flurries move away, some sunshine with a cold, gusty wind and a high of 30 degrees tomorrow, lower 20s for highs Tuesday and Wednesday. Right now it's 19 and mostly cloudy in Central Park, the humidity 77% and the wind is west at 9 miles an hour. Again the current temperature 19. Will go up to 28 in midtown.]

> January 16 [Good afternoon Brian. And a cold afternoon it is too. Uh, the AccuWeather RealFeel readings right now between 10 and 15 because we have a 15 to 30 mile an hour wind moving along and, uh, that wind will continue here this evening and then drop off a little bit as we go through the rest of the night. But we're looking at cold weather here all week long. This is easily the coldest week of the winter so far, uh, maybe the coldest week that we're going to see as well. Uh, temperatures tonight, uh, dropping to 14, uh, and that's in Central Park but, uh, we will see some readings down around 10 in many of the suburbs. 25 tomorrow despite a lot of sunshine, uh, once again, uh, pretty stiff wind too which will make it feel much lower than that. Uh, tomorrow night gets even lower we're talking 11 in Central Park, uh, single digits everywhere else. Wednesday mostly sunny and only 23. Thursday cloudy to partly sunny, uh, mid, uh 20s and then on Friday, uh, cold northwest wind, partly sunny skies the high only 21. Right now we have 29 under a partly sunny sky, northwest winds 15 to 30 miles an hour, repeating the current temperature, 29 going down to 14 in midtown.]

> January 17 [Well, Doug, we have more cold weather in store coming up over night and also through the end of the week we do stay cold, looking for a low of 14 in midtown overnight with clear to partly cloudy skies across the area. It is going to be staying rather windy as well, making it feel like it's near 0 for much of the night. As we go through the day on Tuesday we will see a good deal of sunshine. That gusty wind is going to continue and we are going to see a very cold day with a high of 25 degrees. Back down to 11 for a low Tuesday night, a mainly clear sky. Still lots of sunshine Wednesday but more in the way of clouds on Thursday, highs in the lower to middle 20s throughout the rest of the week. Currently in Central Park partly cloudy and 19 degrees, the humidity 59% and the wind is west at 9 miles per hour, gusting to 20. The RealFeel temperature 9. The current temperature 19 headed down to 14 in midtown.]

> January 18 [Well, cold continues to be the headline weather story around these parts and that's going to continue be to be the case all week and into the weekend. It really there really doesn't appear to be any significant moderation until sometime next week. But at least it will be sunny the rest of the day today with the high in the middle 20s. Clear and cold tonight, low, uh, about 14 in the city but down near zero in the interior cold spots. Mostly sunny tomorrow, high again in the middle 20s. Clouds and sun Thursday with a couple of flurries a possibility. It looks like Thursday and Friday probably the coldest days of the week, with highs in the low 20s. And then sunny and cold on Saturday with a high of 25. Right now it's 17 and sunny in Central Park, humidity's 56%. Wind from the west at 10. Makes the RealFeel temperature 9. Repeating the current temperature 17 going up to 25.]

> January 19 [Yeah, James, it's definitely another bundle-up-before-you-step-outside, uh, morning, uh sunshine not going to be very effective today, uh, the temperature only into the middle 20s as our string of days of, uh, freezing and below continues. Tomorrow probably even colder. We don't look for temperatures to get out of the teens tomorrow and there'll be a wind blowing that AccuWeather RealFeel temperature will be below 0 much of the day tomorrow. There may be a couple snow flurries, especially tomorrow afternoon and night. Friday it's still cold but sunny, windy, high of 25. Sun less wind but still cold Saturday. And then Sunday we may get all the way up to 32. Next week we should get above freezing. But right now it's 13 and mostly sunny in Central Park, humidity 61%. Wind from the west at 15 makes the AccuWeather RealFeel temperature 4 below zero. Repeating the current temperature 13 going up to 25.]

> January 20 [Well, it continues to be extremely cold, uh, this morning. The sun is up but it's not helping a whole lot. We only expect readings to be in the teens this afternoon. The wind will gust to between 20 and 30 miles an hour and that will make that AccuWeather RealFeel temperature well below zero. Tonight the temperature doesn't drop a whole lot but the wind stays up so it's going to continue to feel extremely cold. And tomorrow will be cold and windy but the sun will help out a little bit more tomorrow up to 27. About 30 with less wind and sunshine on Saturday and then increasing cloudiness on Sunday. Right now is 10 mostly sunny in Central Park. Humidity is 63%. Wind from the northwest at 10, that makes the AccuWeather RealFeel temperature zero. Repeating the current temperature 10, going up only to 18.]

> January 21 [It's a bitterly cold morning out there. That's nothing new it's, uh, very similar to the way it was yesterday. AccuWeather RealFeel temperature right now minus 11. We're in frostbite territory. It going up to 27, though, this afternoon. Some relief, but still, very cold. Tonight, going to to 20 in midtown, 10 to 14 in many suburbs. Tomorrow sunshine, temperature inching up toward 32. We have a shot at 34 to 36 degrees on Sunday before the next cold front arrives. Flurries or a period of snow late Sunday or Sunday night into early Monday and then partly sunny late Monday, high 26. It's 8 degrees, relative humidity 57% winds out of the west northwest at 13 gusting to 17 the AccuWeather RealFeel temperature minus 11. The temperature 8 heading to 27.]

> January 22 [Well, Laurie, uh, I'm looking at, uh, current 1010 WINS Doppler radar and it's still showing some of the light snow occurring in the city and especially out on central and eastern Long Island. Uh, as you look to the west, though, across northern parts of New Jersey this is beginning to taper off now, it's just a few flurries, for instance, in Morris County and Sussex County. Uh, this all associated with the leading edge of a bitterly cold air mass, of course, um, really much of this month we've had temperatures below normal but you haven't seen nothin' yet. Uh, looks like our temperatures tomorrow will be in the teens. We're headed down to 13 in midtown overnight and AccuWeather RealFeel temperatures tomorrow when you factor in the wind, they will be below zero. So, uh, basically we're spending the, uh, entire day tomorrow albeit a sunny day, between 13 and 18 degrees. Very cold tomorrow night, temperatures moderate somewhat Tuesday and Wednesday we could have a rain or snow shower. Right now 29 in midtown, relative humidity 92%, the air calm, it's snowing lightly and 29, we're heading down to 13.]

> January 23 [James, it really is. It's exceptionally cold this morning 12 degrees Central Park. The wind is, uh, gusting. That AccuWeather RealFeel temperature is near zero. It's a pretty looking morning and it will be a nice looking day with sunshine but that sun is gonna be rather ineffective and temperatures will only be in the teens this afternoon and the wind will continue to be gusty. Tonight will be clear and very cold with a low of 8 but down near and even below zero interior sections. We could have a 5 or 8 below zero somewhere in some of the, uh, snow-covered areas north of the city. Sunshine tomorrow, less wind, it will feel better in the afternoon tomorrow with a high in the 20s and mostly cloudy on Wednesday, moderating up to 37 and maybe there's a little bit of either snow or rain. Right now it is 12 degrees, mostly sunny in Central Park northwest wind at 11, that makes the AccuWeather RealFeel temperature zero. Repeating the current temperature 12 going up only to 18 today.]

> January 24 [Temperatures today are going to moderate albeit slowly because of cloud cover. That cloud cover could produce a snow flurry today but the temperatures should get into the low to middle 20s later in the day and then not drop very much tonight, might not drop, uh, below 20 in most place but there'll also be, uh, a little enhancement in some snow tonight, not a big storm, but there could be a covering to a fresh inch or at most two by the time it ends tomorrow morning. Clouds linger the rest of the day tomorrow but temperatures moderate into the 30s. Thursday will be mostly sunny, cold about 32. And then increasing cloudiness on Friday. Right now it's 12 and cloudy in Central Park, temperature today going up to 26.]

> January 25 [Well, uh, Doppler radar, our 1010 WINS Doppler radar continuing to show light snow scattered around the metropolitan area right now, uh, there are breaks in the snow pattern but it extends all the way back into, uh, central and western Pennsylvania. So we've got several hours yet in which there will be intermittent light snow. Certainly not piling up, uh, an inch or probably less in Manhattan and across most of the five boroughs but there might be a little bit more than an inch, uh, on, in some areas, uh, west and to the southwest of the city. All in all, a light kind of a snowfall and the important thing is the cold is nowhere near as intense as it's been. With clearing tonight we look for low in 20s. A partly sunny day tomorrow, high 34. Up to 36 Friday chance for some rain or snow late Friday night into Saturday. Right now 29 degrees, cloudy. There is some snow around the area, uh, in midtown. The temperature today going up to 36.]

> January 26 [Well, Laurie, we're going to see mainly clear skies now as we go through the overnight. Lows going down to around 22 degrees. Then for the day Thursday we have some sunshine coming up and a high goes up to 34 degrees in the afternoon. It won't be quite so cold as we get into the weekend. Friday's high is 38 as clouds increase, looking at temperatures going into the 40s for both Saturday and Sunday afternoon. On Saturday we may see a bit of rain or snow. Sunday is dry with some sunshine. Right now it's clear and 30 degrees in Central Park, the humidity 78% and the air is calm. Again the current temperature 30. We'll go down to 22 in midtown.]

> January 27 [Ah, yes, indeedy and actually it's a, uh, you know, fairly tranquil as well with sunshine getting dimmed by high mid-level clouds, high temperature 34 degrees. Clouds easily thicken tonight, low 30. That's the easy part of the forecast. The question mark is whether or not the, uh, rain that's currently over the Del Marva peninsula will actually come this far north or will it get to a certain point over central Jersey then pivot offshore. It's gonna be a close call, we could see a little bit of light flurry action or freezing drizzle first thing tomorrow morning if that precipitation's here, in a best case scenario it doesn't do anything until tomorrow afternoon and by that point it would just be rain and drizzle with a high of 38 degrees but watch out for air as the dense fog. A secondary storm system Saturday brings in rain or wet snow with a high near 40. Right now it's 30 in Caldwell, 30 degrees and partly sunny in Central Park, headed up to 34 in midtown.]

> January 28 [Well, uh, Laurie, of course, uh, TGIF, uh, that applies to the work week but, uh, not so really in terms of the weather, which will be going downhill later on today. We've got clouds now, 32 in midtown. Well, the temperature at daybreak should be in most places between 28 and 32. Now it'll be later this morning probably around 10 or 11 o'clock we'll start to see a little bit of light rain and snow breaking out. I think that by the afternoon rush hour it's just going to be plain rain in the city but again as you go farther north and west especially north and west of I-287 could see a, uh, wintry mix. Uh, but everything should go over to plain rain, if not late on this Friday night and early Saturday. Once we get this wet weather out of the way we're going to be treated to temperatures in the 40s. Remember, the last time it was 40 in midtown was back on the 13th of this month. We should start off February with a high of 40 going up to 48, we think, by Monday. Right now 32 in midtown, the relative humidity 64%, wind northeast 5 miles per hour, cloudy and 32. We're going down to near 28.]

> January 29 [Well, we have a damp Friday afternoon ahead, Judy, and, uh, some rain and drizzle in spots. There have been a few sleet pellets recently but, uh, should be well above freezing so no problems for travel, a high of 38. Now tonight, periods of rain, and that will be for tomorrow as well, low tonight 34, high tomorrow 40. However, a winter weather advisory where the rain will mix with ice and snow northwest of Interstate 287. Could be a coating to an inch there. It'll turn out partly sunny, up to 44 Sunday and then Monday sun followed by clouds, breezy, mild with a high of 48. Right now we have some light rain, a few sleet pellets in Central Park, 34 degrees, the humidity 92% the wind northeast at 6. Repeating the current temperature, 34 headed up to 38 this afternoon.]

> January 30 [Well, we are looking at clouds and some sunshine today, James, and we're also looking at an area of rain which is in eastern Pennsylvania now and looks like it's, uh, tending to shrink as it comes eastward, but it's certainly gonna move into northwest New Jersey within the next hour and I think there will be some rain in areas north and west of Interstate 287 today. There certainly could be a shower in parts and other parts of the metropolitan area but a mild day getting up to around 50, highs tomorrow in the 40s with a mix of clouds and sun. And, most importantly James, it's Ground Hog Day eve, just one day before the big holiday and, uh, the weather today looks like it's going to be just fine. Clouds, there's a slight chance of a slight sprinkle this morning but there will also be sunshine and the temperature getting into the 40s. Tomorrow there may be a couple of hours of either wet snow or rain as a cold front passes through. Now Staten Island Chuck did not see his shadow, meaning that Spring is, uh, getting ready to spring. But of course, Punxsutawney Phil did see his shadow, indicating six more weeks of winter. We've also heard from, uh, from, uh, Buckeye Chuck out in Ohio and he agrees with Staten Island Chuck and they're against old Punxsutawney Phil. So, uh, we've got battling groundhogs here and I guess time will tell as it usually does. As far as weather is concerned, another mild day today but then it turns colder tonight. There can be some rain and snow this afternoon and evening, maybe a few hours worth. At this point we are not anticipating any snow accumulation but it will be a whole heck of a lot colder tomorrow despite sunshine. High temperatures tomorrow will only be in the 30s and maybe not too far into the 30s at that.]

> January 31 [Well, uh, Katherine, on this Tuesday morning we still have a temperature of 40 degrees in midtown, uh, we're not expecting the temperature to change all that much here over the next few hours. We have clouds, 1010 WINS Doppler radar showing a bit of rain going on across the, uh, Hudson Valley and in Connecticut. Later on today, uh, that Doppler radar will be filling in throughout the tri-state area, I think after 5 a.m. and, uh, we'll be seeing periods of rain right through the morning rush hour on into, uh, midday. Probably the rain will be wrapping up around 12 noon or 1 o'clock, uh, but we're to be, uh, undergoing some big temperature changes here. It should rise to 52 later on today with a mild southwesterly wind and then the rain stops, drier and much colder air will be rushing in later this afternoon. Temperatures, probably winding up near 40 by the afternoon rush. We're headed all the way down to 28 on this Tuesday night and we'll stay cold and mainly dry the rest of the week, other than for a flurry on Friday, I don't expect much to happen. Temperatures will be in the lower and middle 30s. Right now 40 in midtown, the relative humidity 70%, the wind south, 6 miles per hour. Cloudy and 40 heading down to 39.]

> February 1 [It's going to be windy and cold today, uh, that wind gusting still close to 30 miles an hour at times, uh, and actually are one or two little very light snow flurries scattered around. But there will also be ample sun today with a high in the middle 30s. Clear tonight, a low 24 in the city, teens in the suburbs. Sun followed by clouds tomorrow and there's a chance for a period of snow tomorrow night into Friday morning, if it materializes, it doesn't look like a major storm but there will be a pretty important storm along the middle Atlantic coast Friday morning that we're going to have to keep a watch out on. Then clearing later Friday. The weekend looks dry and chilly. 31 degrees now and partly sunny in Central Park, temperature today going up to 36.]

> February 2 [Well, Cheryl we are not going to see any weather troubles for the Thursday morning rush hour but the Friday morning rush hour could bring a very different story. Clouds going to be in creasing as we go into the day on Thursday, then Thursday night into Friday we're going to be watching low pressure, uh, swinging up the mid-Atlantic coast, it's going to be throwing some snow our way, looks like overnight Thursday night into the first half of Friday is going to be our snow chance and there can be a couple of inches on the ground by the time this storm is all said and done later Friday afternoon. We're dry out, though, on Saturday. Mostly sunny skies, the high 34 but there could be a bit of snow and flurries again by the end of the day Sunday. Right now 26 and clear in Central Park, the humidity 42% and the wind is from the west at 9 miles an hour. Again the current temperature 26. It'll go down to 24 in midtown.]

> February 3 [Maybe even snowstorm, Judy, uh, about 2 inches of snow on the ground in Central Park now, 3 to 4 inches of snow, uh, just about everywhere else and looking at out 1010 WINS Doppler radar now heavy snow covering the metropolitan area and it's gonna stay that way for at least the next few hours, probably until around noon it'll snow at the rate of a half an inch to an inch per hour and that mean we think we wind up with pretty solid average of 6 inches across the metropolitan area, little less than that of course right in midtown Manhattan, a little less to the north, a little more to the east and to the south. 6 to 10 inches worth out toward the, uh, Nassau and Suffolk County, uh, line and also in Hunter and Somerset and Middlesex and Monmouth Counties in Central New Jersey. Snow end early to mid-afternoon. It'll clear tonight, be sunny tomorrow, high about 32, cloud up Sunday with a chance for some snow on Monday. Right now 28 degrees and snowing in Central Park, temperature today going up to 32.]

> February 4 [Feels pretty quiet across the country this evening. We do have a front, uh, draping from Michigan back into the central plains and curls back up into the northern Rockies also a low over the southern Rockies generating some rain and mountain snow. We may eventually have to deal with that one, uh, come Monday. But for the rest of the weekend it's just dry, cold weather. We'll have, uh, temperatures in the teens tonight to around 20 in midtown. 38 tomorrow under partly sunny skies. And then that system from the southwest, uh, runs over to the southeastern states and then up the eastern seaboard and likely to deliver a little bit of snow here on Monday, uh, with a high temperature around 34. Behind it another shot of some very cold air Tuesday and Wednesday it's going to be blustery, uh, we will have some sunshine both days but temperatures only in the 20s. Right now 28 and a clear sky with a southwest wind at 9. Repeating the current temperature 28 going down to 20 in midtown.]

> February 5 [Yeah, well, things are relatively quiet right now though we're going to be seeing an increase in those clouds as we go through the afternoon and into the nighttime hours. High this afternoon 36, low tonight 28. Then by tomorrow morning an area of low pressure off the Carolina coast will throw some snow our way. Snow may arrive at some point during the morning, perhaps between 7 and 9 a.m. and continuing into the afternoon accumulating a general one to three inches, possibly, uh, a few higher spots, uh, a few higher amounts I should say on eastern Long Island, high 34. Tons of clouds and sun for Tuesday and Wednesday. It'll be windy and cold each day, the high Tuesday 25 and on Wednesday there could be a few flurries, high 28. 35 with some sunshine in Central Park, humidity 45%. The wind west at 14 gusting to 20 miles an hour. Repeating the current temperature 35 going up to 36 in midtown.]

> February 6 [There's a low pressure area on the North Carolina coast another one coming from the Ohio Valley and the two should combine to give us snow during the afternoon hours, most of it falling between about 2 or 3 this afternoon and 7 and 8 this evening so the evening commute is the target time for most of the trouble. And the first snow will simply melt on the streets and the reason is that it's well above freezing right now. We're expecting 1 to 2 inches when all is said and done by late this evening around the city, 2 to 4 inches in many suburbs as much as 6 perhaps on eastern Long Island because the storm will be strengthing as it moves away from the coast. The temperature steadier slowly falling this afternoon it should be down to 32 degrees by 4 or 5 p.m. then down to 24 tonight. Tomorrow's high 28 then blustery and cold Wednesday and Thursday the high Wednesday 28 only 24 on Thursday. Currently in midtown 36 degrees, relative humidity 59% winds out of the south southeast at 8 miles per hour. 36 degrees in midtown, heading slowly down this afternoon.]

> February 7 [Well Sandy we're looking, uh, partly to mostly cloudy skies tonight, uh, we'll see some flurries here a little later on this evening, there's actually a pretty good area of snow coming through central Pennsylvania at the moment. It should weaken a bit as it approaches us but, uh, we could, uh, see a dusting of snow here a little bit later on, uh, that will probably stop only to renew again, uh, toward daybreak as an artic cold front arrives on the scene, a low temperature of around 20 degrees, uh, flurries tomorrow morning maybe even a heavier snow squall as that boundary moves through and then the rest of the day a cold wind with some sunshine a high of 30. Uh, just a windy bitterly cold night coming up tomorrow night. Clear to partly cloudy skies, temperatures in the upper single digits to around 10 but it's gonna feel like it's well below zero. Thursday partly sunny, brisk and quite cold, a high only 22. Right now we have 24 to partly cloudy sky with a northwest wind at 6. Repeating the current temperature 24 going down to 20 in midtown.]

> February 8 [Well, good morning Judy, yeah. That's the, uh, story of, uh, afternoon weather in fact the weather right through tomorrow is that the wind is going to make these temperatures that are cold anyway feel even colder as this artic air pours into the region, uh, behind this morning's artic front. We'll see intervals of sun this afternoon. Temperatures will slowly fall 25 by day's end. But the winds gusting up to 40 will bring our RealFeel temperature down to near or below zero by the evening rush. Same story tonight. Bitterly cold. 10 in midtown, single digits in the suburbs. Brisk, very cold only 22 for a high tomorrow. Could see some snow then by the weekend. Right now it's partly sunny. 31 in Central Park, humidity 41% a west wind gusting to 31 gives us our AccuWeather RealFeel temperature of about 19. Repeating the current temperature 31 and it's going down to 25.]

> February 9 [Clear, brisk and very cold overnight, uh, we'll reach, uh, 14 in midtown 10, maybe 8 degrees in some of the suburbs. And then a partly sunny day tomorrow with afternoon temperatures around 30 degrees. A little lighter winds now that the high will be on the eastern seaboard, uh, the next, uh system we have to tangle with is a big storm which is, uh, causing precipitation over much of the west, actually all the way from California now spreading out into the, uh, mid-Mississippi valley and, uh, we do expect to see some snow come in here around or shortly after midnight tomorrow night and go into Saturday morning. We could pick up to, uh, 2 to perhaps 4 inches accumulation and then Saturday afternoon and Saturday night into Sunday morning, cloudy windy and cold. Temperatures will be in the 20s. And we can see some snow once again Sunday afternoon and Sunday night. Right now 18 and a clear sky with a northwest wind at 6. Repeating the current temperature temperature 18 going down to 14 in midtown.]

> February 10 [The clouds are going to be building as we head for the early part of tonight and by later tonight some snow could arrive, our low down to 18 degrees. Snow amounts will generally be on the light side. It could cause some problems if you're going to be traveling tomorrow morning, um, as much as an inch but a lot of places see just a dusting. Later tomorrow brisk and quite cold. Clouds should give way to some sunshine, the high 23. Mainly clear, brisk and very cold tomorrow night. Low 10 in midtown, single digits in the suburbs. And clouds return on Sunday and we could have some snow arriving later in the day or at night and this time it could be a more significant storm. Details are still sketchy at this point. You'll want to keep it tuned right here. High 22 degrees, windy and cold on Monday. Some snow or flurries possible through the morning hours and clearing the afternoon, the high 32. 29 and mainly cloudy in Central Park, the wind from the west at about 9 miles an hour and the AccuWeather RealFeel temperature 20. Current temperature once again 29 headed down to 18 in midtown.]

> February 11 [And we see a little sunshine popping out of the clouds this afternoon. Overall not that bad of an afternoon a couple of spot a little windy, actually at JFK winds, uh, north at 17 miles an hour, gusting to 22 miles an hour right now. We are going to see some inclement weather as we go through the weather, now, clouds do increase tomorrow that's in advance of a storm that will bring 6 to 12 inches of snow later tomorrow night and into the day Monday. By Tuesday and Wednesday things start to warm up a little bit we should see a little sun as well. 24 at Newark, 24 at LaGuardia and 23 in the park. Cloudy in New York, relative humidity 52%, wind north at 9 miles an hour gusting to 22 miles an hour. 23 now, we'll go to 26 this afternoon.]

> February 12 [And what a forecast it is too as we're uh, hearing here the snow is starting to fly around the region, uh, it will become steady, uh, over the next couple of hours and inch its way northward through the, uh, tri-state area. Uh, the storm is a very slow moving system. We're looking at probably snow in the air for at least the next thirty hours, which is why we're talking about so much snow and, uh, part of the problem too is the fact that it is so cold, uh, with temperatures only in the teens right now and, uh, they will slowly rise up into the middle 20s, uh, but we're easily looking at easily a foot to a foot and a half of snow. There is potential for a couple of feet, uh, before it finally tapers off around midnight tomorrow night, uh, we'll probably have 3 to 6 inches on the ground by the morning rush hour and around a foot by the evening rush hour. So it going to be tough getting around here tomorrow. In addition to the snow on the ground we're gonna have a lot of blowing and drifting because we're gonna look at a very strong northeast wind, uh, poor visibility during the height of the storm. And then on Tuesday, uh, clouds may even break for a little bit of sunshine, 32 degrees for a high. 15 and cloudy right now, a north wind at 6. Repeating the current temperature 15 and temperatures, uh, steady and or slowly rising in midtown tonight.]

> February 13 [James it continues to snow hard, uh, very hard in parts of the metropolitan area and looking at 1010 WINS Doppler radar there's more heavy snow from here southwest all the way down to the Chesapeake Bay area and that snow has got to come northeastward so we're going to continue to get snow falling at the rate of an inch to two inches per hour from now probably until early afternoon, maybe two to three o'clock. And that means that we could get another 4 to 6 or in some places even 8 inches of new snow on top of what we've already got. The storm total in Central Park will wind up pretty close to 20 inches or so with some places winding up with, uh, probably over 2 feet and then you've got to add in the drifts caused by the 30 to 40 mile an hour winds. It will end this evening, tomorrow turn partly sunny up to about 32. By Thursday it will be up 40 but right now it's 20 degrees and snowing, the temperature today only going up to 26. James it continues to snow hard, uh, very hard in parts of the metropolitan area and looking at 1010 WINS Doppler radar there's more heavy snow from here southwest all the way down to the Chesapeake Bay area and that snow has got to come northeastward so we're going to continue to get snow falling at the rate of an inch to two inches per hour from now probably until early afternoon, maybe two to three o'clock.

It will end this evening, tomorrow turn partly sunny up to about 32. By Thursday it will be up 40 but right now it's 20 degrees and snowing, the temperature today only going up to 26.]

> February 14 [Well, Cindy, uh, partly cloudy skies here for the rest of the night. Sort of moody, shall we say, for Valentine's Day. High teens in the suburbs, uh, for an overnight low to, uh, 20s in the city and we will have a decent day tomorrow, uh, a dry one with sunshine followed by clouds upper 30s in the afternoon. The next, uh, frontal system is, uh, a relatively weak one now causing some flurries out in Wisconsin, uh, down into the Chicago area that'll be passing through here tomorrow evening, uh, we can see a, uh, few flurries or sprinkles and then it will clear late tomorrow night. Some nice weather, then, Thursday and Friday behind that front, milder actually, lots of sunshine Thursday 44, Friday sunshine followed by clouds, the high of 46 and then a shot of rain Saturday with temperatures in the 40s. 32 and partly cloudy with, uh, light north to northwest wind. Repeating the current temperature 32 going down to 26 in midtown.]

> February 15 [We're gonna get a break in the weather, not only for today but for the next, uh, well, three days as clouds, uh, thin out for partial sunshine today we'll get the temperature up close to 40 this afternoon. Certainly above freezing and well into the 30s. Might be a sprinkle or flurry this evening then clearing tonight. Tomorrow a mostly sunny day. I'll tell ya, if you're outside tomorrow afternoon there won't be much of a breeze, the sun will be out, temperatures into the 40s. It will feel good. And then a, uh, nice day Friday but increasing clouds. Rainy and windy Saturday and that combination of rain and melting snow can cause street and highway flooding Saturday. Dry Sunday but blustery and colder. Right now it's 31 and partly sunny in Central Park temperature today going up to 38.]

> February 16 [Uh, yes, Catherine and, uh, gee, where have you heard a cold forecast before I think, uh, basically this entire winter, uh, really exceeded our expectations or maybe last winter was just so darn mild, uh, that you wanted to believe, uh, winters would stay this way forever. Well, we've got arctic air tonight, some clouds, 34 in midtown. We're heading down to 24. We'll be hard pressed to get, uh, close to the freezing mark tomorrow, looking like 30, 31 degrees with some sunshine and a brisk wind. Now tomorrow night when that wind dies down we're going down to the teens, about 13 in midtown, single digits in many suburbs. A cold and dry pattern takes us through mid-week but the storm system organizing in the southern states - where have you heard that before? - uh, will be providing us with some precipitation Thursday, Thursday night, early Friday and much of that will be in the form of snow. How much? A little too early to tell. Right now 34 in midtown, relative humidity 59%. The wind light and variable. It's cloudy and 34, heading down to 24.]

> February 17 [James, our cold weather continues and despite sunshine today, the temperature won't get above 32 in most places and it'll drop down into the teens throughout tonight. Single digits in many suburbs. Tomorrow, uh, kind of a mix of clouds and sun, but uh by the time we get to Thursday it'll be cloudy and we've, uh, got snow again in the forecast later Thursday, Thursday night into Friday morning. This next storm still way out into southern California so it's got a long ways to come and we've still got a lot of time to watch it. It's not going to be the kind of a storm like the President's Day blizzard but it could be a formidable storm, enough snow to get the shovels and plows out again and we'll keep you posted. Right now 28 and sunny in Central Park, temperature today going up to 32.]

> February 18 [Uh, it's that old Christmas song, "Let It Snow, Let It Snow" not so this afternoon. A lot of cloud cover, 26 degrees but, see this is just one piece of our latest storm system, it's actually going to move farther away tonight so the clouds part company, low 15 to 20, then the clouds quick to return tomorrow with the high near 30 degrees. It's shortly after midnight tomorrow night through the first part of Friday afternoon we'll have that accumulation. Most areas, at least from the, uh, nearby suburbs, from the city on eastward across Long Island 3 to 6 inches. North of the city it'll be 1 to 3 inches and that's probably a similar, uh, bet, uh, north of I-80 as well but once get on into, uh, central Monmouth County on southward could be as much as 6 to 10 inches worth of snow. I got my shovel. It's 16 this hour, White Plains 20 with clouds in Central Park going to 26 in midtown.]

> February 19 [Well, if this were a baseball game, we might call this a, uh, swing and a miss, uh, this is a pretty good storm but most of it's going to be passing us by to the south. It's been snowing most of the day down across Washington, Baltimore and getting into, uh, the southern half of New Jersey and that corridor looking at a good half a foot some places as much as 8 inches before it tapers off tomorrow morning, uh, but the northern fringe of it having a hard time making its way up through New Jersey but eventually we are going to see some snowflakes in the pre-dawn hours, uh, but it's not gonna last long it'll, uh, continue on through the morning but will taper off to flurries again during by lunchtime and we may have to scrape together the snow to get up to an inch, uh, we're calling for 1 to 3, of the 3 I think it's definitely more likely south of the city. Temperatures will be in the middle 20s to start the day, 34 in the afternoon. Over the weekend upper 30s to near 40 both days, uh, Saturday a little bit of sunshine. Sunday looks to be a cloudy day, may even see a bit of wet snow or rain. Currently 30 degrees and cloud with the northeast wind at 9, repeating the current temperature 30 going down to 26 in midtown.]

> February 20 [Well, Greg, two things we know about this weekend. One, we're not going to have the big washout like we did last weekend. And two, cold air is going to be held at bay, for now. It will be arriving here with a vengeance on Sunday night as an artic cold front moves through and temperatures therefore Monday will be no higher than about 33. Tuesday will be even worse but, eh, Monday and Tuesday, well, that's still a long way off we hope, uh, let's enjoy the weekend and moderate temperatures. Temperature 33 right now heading down to 28. Clouds will limit sun later today but still not all that bad with a high of 38. There's be a few showers with rain and wet snow, especially on this Saturday night and early Sunday. Sunday's high actually will be 42 but then that much colder air moves in and as I gave you the details earlier, Monday and Tuesday, lower 30s. 33 right now, relative humidity 72%, light and variable wind. Cloudy 33, heading down to 28.]

> February 21 [Well, we've got a little bit of everything here, uh, over the next 48 hours, uh, at the moment, uh, we have an area of, uh, both rain and wet snow breaking out from the Pennsylvania and upstate New York, uh, some flakes have been, uh, on occasion across Sussex and Orange county, uh, they might even pick up, uh, an inch of slushy snow there before it goes over to rain very very late tonight. In closer to the city we do expect to see a bit of rain at times here tonight, uh, there could be some wet snowflakes mixed in as well, at least though midnight or two in the morning and then it's, uh, too mild aloft to support anything frozen. A low temperature of 35. Tomorrow though it's periods of rain and drizzle for everybody. 44 for a high temperature. That'll come to an end tomorrow evening. Then it's a shot of artic air tomorrow night and Monday, uh, strong winds and, uh, temperatures only in the 20s on Monday despite a lot of sunshine but it's gonna feel like low teens or single-digits. Tuesday without the wind it won't feel as harsh, clouds, a little bit of sun and temperatures recover into the mid-30s. We have 36 and a cloudy sky with a south wind at 7. Repeating the current temperature 36 going down to 35 in midtown.]

> February 22 [A kind of a damp day out there today, well, periods of rain it will continue through the evening hours. Some of that rain may be heavy for the next few hours. We'll have a high of 44 degrees. Winds will increase tonight, it becomes much colder with clearing skies, falling back to 19. Watch for some slippery patches if you're out driving around late tonight. For tomorrow, brittle and cold wind with sunshine. We'll have a high of 28 but the AccuWeather RealFeel temperature is only in the low teens and single digits. Not quite as harsh for Tuesday with times of clouds and sunshine, high near 40. And now Wednesday, cloudy and windy with a chance of rain with a high of 46. Currently 35 degrees in White Plains, 34 in Bridgeport. In Central Park 38 degrees, relative humidity 100% and the wind out of the northeast at 6 miles per hour. Repeating the current temperature 38, heading up to 44 in midtown.]

> February 23 [Well, good morning Paul. We are awaiting some bitterly cold air that will be arriving in the tri-state area in a matter of hours. The current 1010 WINS Doppler radar showing a few light snow showers, flurries, really, uh, for instance right now, Sommerville New Jersey getting those flurries while Teterborough Airport is getting a few sprinkles. The artic front moves through and even though it's 39 now, we'll be plunging all the way to 22 later this morning. Later today temperatures stay in the 20s and it'll feel like it's in the low teens when you factor in the wind so, uh, not, uh, good stuff, more like early January rather than early March. It'll be 18 on this Monday night. We'll recover to a high of about 40 Tuesday. Just when it looks like things are gonna better and it'll be around 50 or so Wednesday, we could see some rain in the afternoon. 39 in midtown right now, relative humidity 57%, wind west 10 miles per hour, gusting to 20. Fair, 39, we're heading down to 22.]

> February 24 [Oh, it is. This is, uh, a little silly here with temperatures around 21 degrees, we should actually be in the mid-40s at this time of the year so some 26, 26 degrees below normal this afternoon, Brian and, uh, tonight, uh, we're gonna need several logs on the fire too. 15 in midtown, 10 in a lot of the suburbs. Clear skies, uh, the better part of the night but it is going to be clouding up before morning, uh, tomorrow clouds, some breaks of sun, but, uh, we'll finally get the air mass to moderate a little bit, 37 in the afternoon, uh, tomorrow night it doesn't drop hardly at all, could even see a bit of rain late tomorrow night. Wednesday intermittent rain but at least it's a little bit milder too, with temperatures getting up to around 50 in the afternoon. Thursday, though, it's, uh, windy and turning colder once again, clouds breaking for some sun, high of 36 and then Friday we'll bounce into the mid-40s as it clouds up once again. 21 and sunny. The AccuWeather RealFeel reading is 9 on a northwest wind 10 to 20 miles an hour. Repeating the current temperature 21 going down to 15 in midtown.]

> February 25 [James it cold again this morning although not as bitter as yesterday and the leading edge of warmer air or warm front is pushing through the area today, uh, that's producing cloud cover now. There even are a few light flurries around, most of them are north of the city: Sussex, Passaic, northern Bergen counties in New Jersey and then Orange, Rockland, northern Rockland, Westchester and Putnam counties, uh, there, uh, it'll be a couple of light flurries but there'll also be some sun as we go through the mid-day and afternoon and it will get milder up into the 30s. The temperature won't drop much tonight. We will have drizzle, rain and fog tomorrow with a high 45 to 50. When the rain begins late tonight, still could be cold enough north and west for there to be a little freezing rain and then, uh, it clears on Thursday, uh, chilly again with a high in the 30s. Right now it's 21, mostly cloudy in Central Park, temperature today going up to 37.]

> February 26 [Well yes Katherine and, uh, we should plan on most of that rain occurring between the hours of, uh, 5:00 on this Wednesday morning and around noontime so it will have an impact on the morning rush hour and, uh, even more so we're concerned about some of that rain freezing on some surfaces north and west of the city, many counties in northern New Jersey, Rockland and Orange counties, Westchester, northern Westerchester, New York are under winter weather advisories for that reason. Keep in mind, even though it's 39 in midtown right now and there's been no change within the past couple of hours, many suburbs near 30. So we've got that to contend with but everybody'll getting, will be getting milder on Wednesday afternoon when the rain stops, highs will be close to 50 degrees. We'll turn drier on Wednesday night and Thursday but also colder, Wednesday night the low 29, Thursday's high in the mid-30s, Friday 43 and rain may return, especially late in the day or at night. Mostly cloudy, 39 in midtown, relative humidity 76%, the air is calm. It's mostly cloudy and 39, heading down to 34.]

> February 27 [Well, Sandy, we're looking at, uh, just a stray shower this evening but otherwise mild, uh, here early this evening. It will be turning, uh, chillier during the night behind a cold front with temperatures getting down around the freezing mark by daybreak. Uh, for tomorrow it's a cloudy, brisk, colder day and we've got a storm, uh, developing over Arkansas with some rain breaking out that's going to be spreading northeast. Word now is that there's some wet snow starting around daybreak, uh, probably ending during the afternoon hours, right now looks like a 1 to 3 inch, uh, snowfall, uh, with the roads wet and slushy as temperatures just kind of hover near freezing. It'll clear out tomorrow night and then it's a stretch of some nice weather Friday through the weekend, uh, at least partly sunny skies and temperatures getting back into the 40s. Right now we have 51, mostly cloudy skies and southwest wind at 12. Repeating the current temperature 51 going down to 32 in midtown.]

> February 28 [Well, in the wake of our, uh, generally 3 to 6 inch snowstorm we had earlier, uh, skies are going to be clearing out now the rest of the night, uh, high pressure, which stretches from Michigan all the way down to Mississippi valley's going to sliding eastward and giving us very cold conditions overnight. The wind will settle down, that'll help because right now it feels like it's down in the single digits. Temperatures are going to drop 18 in midtown, 10 in some of the suburbs. Underneath the center of this high not a bad day coming up tomorrow, sure it's chilly but, uh, lots of sunshine and lighter winds, the high of 34. And then we're gonna warm it up as the high moves offshore this weekend. Saturday partly sunny and 49. Sunday 51 degrees ahead of the next front, uh, it'll be a windy day on Sunday, uh, maybe a shower early on. Right now we have mostly cloudy skies, 24 degrees and north wind, 15 t0 25 miles an hour. Repeating the current temperature 24 going down to 18 in midtown.]

> March 1 [We're looking at a, uh, nice, uh, weekend weather-wise. Tonight, on this first day of March, partly cloudy skies, temperatures in the upper 20s in the city, low 20s in many of the suburbs. Uh, but milder air is going to be on the move here for the next couple of days. We'll see afternoon temperatures in the upper 40s, uh, both days, uh, featuring a little bit of sunshine and breezy tomorrow, uh, tomorrow night, actually late tomorrow night or first thing Sunday morning could see a shower or two as a front moves through, uh, but, uh, with that front approaching and tomorrow night's gonna be quite mild, a low of 40 degrees and then Sunday, uh, becoming windy behind the front, clouds, some sunshine and high of 49. Colder air does come in then to start the new week, um, Monday mostly sunny, brisk and a high of 34. Clouding up Tuesday we may even see a little snow, especially Tuesday afternoon, a high of 36. We have 30 degrees and mostly cloudy sky in Central Park, a southwest breeze at 7. Repeating the current temperature, 30 going down to 28 in midtown.]

> March 2 [Well temperatures aren't going to falling too much this evening ahead of a cold front, in fact the may rise a little bit as we head through the overnight hours, uh, we're gonna see those clouds start to increase, low near 40 degrees, maybe a shower or two by dawn and early tomorrow with a cold front moving on through. In the wake of that front it turns windy for tomorrow afternoon, some sunshine returning, high 49 degrees but, uh, temperatures should fall during the afternoon, mainly clear, windy and colder tomorrow night, low 21. A cold, gusty wind continuing on Monday. Sunny to partly cloudy, high 34. Partly sunny on Tuesday, the high 38. We're at 42 right now, mostly cloudy in Central Park, humidity 57%, the wind southeast at 13 miles an hour. And repeating the current temperature 42, going down to 40 in midtown.]

> March 3 [Well, uh, Katherine, I guess, uh, this is a tranquil weather pattern from the standpoint that we're not talking about any major storms this week, uh, but it's still cold, bottom line. 25 and clear in midtown. We're heading down to 20 overnight in many suburbs will be in the teens early tomorrow morning, seems like about the, uh, hundredth morning, uh, since November that we've been in the 20s or lower. Well, uh, tomorrow somewhat of an improvement after a high of just 29 today with a partly sunny sky. High will be close to 40. Tomorrow night not as cold as tonight, lows only in the mid-30s and with a southwest wind Wednesday, we'll, uh, get temperatures up to a very mild 52. Thursday though it looks colder again, a weak weather system may produce some rain or wet snow Thursday afternoon or night and the Friday clouds break and we'll, uh, settle into readings in the mid-40s, not too far from the seasonal average for this time of year. Clear and 25 right now, relative humidity 37%, northwest winds 6 miles per hour. It is clear and 25, we're heading down to 20.]

> March 4 [Well we got some nice weather coming up for tomorrow on a southwesterly flow ahead of an approaching cold front, uh, we'll have a milder afternoon with temperatures climbing into the 50s, uh, clouds and some sunshine but once that front goes through we're back down into the 30s then later tomorrow night and Thursday. And in addition to the chillier air we're also going to have to deal with a system coming all the way the Pacific northwest, uh, which is likely to generate, uh, a cold rain, perhaps even some wet snow Thursday with, like I said, temperatures, uh, in the mid and upper 30s. Once that gets offshore we will be clearing out, uh, with, uh, temperatures back into the 40s on Friday. And it looks like some nice weather for the upcoming weekend, milder once again, mostly sunny Saturday and 52. Central Park reporting 36 degrees under partly cloudy sky, we have a southwest wind at 8. Repeating the current temperature 36 going down to 34 in midtown.]

> March 5 [Well, Sandy we have a cold front, uh, which is on our doorstep. This'll be slipping through here this evening, uh, with, uh, little more, uh, than a sprinkle, uh, WINS Doppler radar showing just some light echoes, uh, near the city and just to our north. A lot of this is probably not even reaching the ground. Uh, otherwise mostly cloudy tonight, a low of 36, uh, tomorrow is a much chillier day, we're looking at temperatures staying in the upper 30s, uh, there is a wave of low pressure, which is gonna run along this boundary, we expect to see some rain develop during the morning hours. That'll, uh, change over to wet snow from north to south as we go through the day and could, uh, amount to, uh, a slushy coating to an inch on the non-paved surfaces as, uh, temperatures will be staying above freezing, it's going to have a hard time stick to roadways and the best chance of that, obviously, higher elevations across northern New Jersey and into, uh, southeastern New York state, uh, actually in that region there could be an inch or two. Uh, tomorrow night we'll clear out. It does get cold, the low of 26 but then some nice weather Friday through the weekend. Friday mostly sunny and 42 and then we'll jump into the 50s with sunshine Saturday and Sunday. 49 and cloudy at the moment, a southwest wind at 8. Repeating the current temperature 49, going down to 36 in midtown.]

> March 6 [James, we do have some rain and snow on the way today but still not yet for a couple of hours, uh, and so, uh, we'll be O.K. uh, getting through the rest of the morning rush hour. Then it'll begin to rain, uh, the rain will change fairly quickly to snow late this morning in the northern and western suburbs, continue this afternoon and north and west of Interstate 287. In the usual spots there can be an inch or two or maybe three that accumulates. In the city, rain could mix with some sleet or some wet snow but the temperature will be above freezing and the, uh, sleet and snow will melt when it hits that ground, we're not anticipating any accumulation. Clearing tonight, mostly sunny tomorrow, high around 40, at least partly sunny Saturday with a high near 50, into the 50s Sunday with increasing clouds. Right now 42 and cloudy in Central Park. Temperature today going down slowly to 34.]

> March 7 [Yes sir we are, James, uh, but the weekend's going to get milder so hang in there. We'll get through today, uh, it will be a partly to mostly sunny day but the high temperature only in the upper 30s and fair and cold tonight, low in the 20s, probably the teens in the northern suburbs. Tomorrow it will be partly sunny and it will get milder up to 48. Trend toward milder weather continues Sunday with a high in the low 50s, although Sunday there will be an increase in cloudiness and on Sunday there will also be a breeze off the water so, uh, from the south, which means the Rockaways, uh, the south shore of Long Island, the Five Towns, that area, will tend to be cooler, probably stay in the 40s. Then some rain Sunday night and Monday. 22 and partly cloudy now in Central Park, temperature today going up to 38.]

> March 8 [Well, uh, Greg, certainly the weather will be treating us a lot more kindly over the next few days. I mean, sure, we're going to encounter some cloud cover and even a bit of rain early Monday perhaps and uh, more rain can occur Wednesday and Thursday but, there will be long stretches of time that will be dry and no artic air is coming, that's the bottom line, eh, you may remember two out of the last three Sunday nights and Mondays we had a visit from artic air. Not this time around. Temperatures will be near 40 later on this Sunday morning. Today we're expecting a high in the mid-50s in midtown. Cooler on Long Island, warmer in the western suburbs, it's always that way this time of year, whenever you get a warm-up. Now, uh, as I said, a bit of rain possible Monday but still a high will be about 54 and we'll be near 50 Tuesday and Wednesday. Right now in midtown 48 and fair. And that relative humidity 58%, the wind variable 7 miles per hour. Repeating the current temperature 48, heading down to 40.]

> March 9 [Well, we will see some clouds increasing through the evening. We'll actually turn out mostly cloudy tonight and we do expect to see some patches of fog and drizzle, especially after midnight. Low 46. Tomorrow cloudy in the morning where there is fog and drizzle still around, then clouds may break for some afternoon sunshine, bringing in another mild afternoon with a high around 60. Patches of clouds tomorrow night, low 48 degrees. Clouds and some sun on Tuesday with a high of 57. Partly sunny and noticeably cooler Wednesday, high 48 degrees. Cloudy on Thursday with a chance for rain and drizzle. Thursday's high again, around 48 degrees. 60 right now in midtown, the relative humidity is 61%, winds light and variable. Repeating the current temperature, 60 going down to 46 in midtown.]

> March 10 [Well for too long the air felt like it was coming from Greenland, but for today it's coming from Shamrock, Texas, Cloverleaf, and also Greenville, South Carolina. It'll be mild, going to 64. Partly cloudy tonight, low 48. Tomorrow partly sunny, high 57. Chillier Wednesday with clouds and sun, high 46. It's likely to rain on Thursday. Currently in midtown 49 degrees, relative humidity 83%, wind northeast 3 miles per hour. 49 heading for 64.]

> March 11 [James, there's going to be some sunshine today, the temperature will get up to 60, uh, interior sections could get into the low 60s, maybe not like 70, uh, like we got yesterday, but still, pretty comfortable. Then tonight will be partly cloudy, it'll chill down into the 30s. A cooler day tomorrow with the wind off the water and a mix of clouds and sun, high tomorrow 44. Clouding up, followed by some rain Thursday, especially late Thursday, Thursday night and into Friday, Friday night with Friday's high back into the 50s. Right now it's 56 and partly cloudy or partly sunny in Central Park, temperature today going up to 59.]

> March 12 [Oh, we are looking at, uh, weather, uh, across, uh, Iraq obviously here for the next several days, uh, we have, uh, actually some good, good weather is expected. They did have a sandstorm here earlier, uh, over the last 12 to 24 hours those winds have subsided and will actually continue to subside. Uh, there will be enough of a wind across the southern portion of the country that still may cause some blowing sand tomorrow. Otherwise we're looking at clear to partly cloudy skies tonight and tomorrow, uh, the weekend, uh, it is good weather and then we could have a storm, uh, generating some strong winds, uh, for Sunday night and Monday, uh, even the possibility of a little rain in Baghdad. Uh, currently we have, uh uh, increasing cloudiness, uh, forecast locally tonight, uh, it's gonna be brisk and chilly, temperatures getting down into the middle 30s and then some, uh, intermittent rain is expected tomorrow and tomorrow night. It'll become steadier and heavier late in the day and, uh, actually a pretty good soaking tomorrow night. Uh, temperatures getting into the mid-40s tomorrow and then staying in the 40s tomorrow night. Friday it's a breezy and warmer day but, uh, still a few more showers maybe even a thunderstorm, the high of 60 degrees. Currently we have sunshine and 44 with an east wind of 10. Repeating the current temperature 44, going up to 46 in midtown.]

> March 13 [We still have clouds, we still have some fog outside of the city this morning but, uh, during the afternoon the sky can brighten, the sun can peek on through, temperatures get on up into the 60s. A couple of showers and maybe a thunderstorm this evening and then the weekend to follow looks pretty good. At least partly sunny, it'll be breezy tomorrow, the high about 60 and in the, uh, 50s for a high on Sunday. As for Middle East weather, it continues to be favorable for military operations and that'll remain the case through Sunday but Monday and Tuesday there may be another episode of strong winds, poor visibilities, and, uh, even some sandstorms. Right now 57 and cloudy in Central Park, temperature today going up to 62.]

> March 14 [Well, Susan, sunshine will be mixing with clouds as we go through the day today. It is going to be on the mild side again this afternoon, the high up to 64 degrees in midtown today. Tonight, we're partly cloudy, dropping back to a low of 42. We're gonna stay dry tomorrow and Monday as well. Partly to mostly sunny skies, highs in the mid to upper 50s and then back to 64 for a high on Tuesday with increasing clouds. No chance of rain in sight until we get to the day Wednesday. Dry weather in Baghdad for the rest of the weekend as well, partly cloudy skies Saturday night and also some sunshine across Baghdad on Sunday. Right now it's 54 degrees and sunny in Central Park. We're going up to 64 in midtown today.]

> March 15 [With sunshine, the temperature's headed on up to 61 for the high this afternoon, partly to mostly cloudy tonight the, or clear to partly cloudy tonight, I should say, the low 46 in midtown, 40 in many suburbs. Tomorrow another mild day, going towards 64 with sunshine. Then a cold front will arrive Wednesday with a couple of showers, high 60. Rain could follow Wednesday night and Thursday morning if that front stalls and a low pressure area forms along it. Afterwards, Thursday afternoon, high 54 with some sunshine. In Iraq the winds are likely to be picking up in the next 24 hours, raising more sand and dust into the atmosphere and that's going to be a problem through Wednesday. Things should settle down after that, after the current storm from the Mediterranean moves past. Currently, the winds are light and variable, the relative humidity 46%. 55 in midtown heading for 61.]

> March 15 [Sandy, a nice evening. Clear to partly cloudy skies overnight, we'll be in the mid-40s come daybreak, uh, tomorrow another mild day but, uh, clouds and, uh, limited sun, a couple of showers around associated with a cold front which'll be moving through especially in the afternoon and evening. Clears out later tomorrow night and Thursday and Friday lots of sunshine and only, uh, a bit cooler. 54 Thursday, 58 Friday. The battlefield forecast, uh, the weather is nasty over there right now. Strong winds accompanying a powerful cold front, uh, really kicking up the sand and making for poor visibility. Uh, that wind speed will gradually come down over the next twenty-four hours but it'll still be causing some problems. Rain, in mountains; snow, in northern Iraq on Wednesday. A couple of showers still down in Baghdad. Uh, then better weather Thursday right on through the weekend. Back home we have 57 in Caldwell, 53 and sunshine in Central Park, the southeast wind at 11. Repeating the current temperature 53 going down to 47 in midtown.]

> March 17 [Well, not much on the WINS DopplerRadar. Literally, just one shower up over northern Bergen County and also over northeastern Morris County and as they move off to the northeast the balance of this afternoon is on the dry side so you really don't need the umbrella for the most part here. 68 degrees for the afternoon high. What we'll see in terms of showers will be for the evening rush hour through the remainder of this evening but already by daybreak the clouds are parting company in the wake of our most recent cool front. We're in at 40 degrees. And, yeah, we're gonna cool it, now that's what a front does. Despite the sun back there'll be a breeze tomorrow, high 56. Sunshine, patchy clouds Friday with a high of 58 degrees. As for our battlefield forecast, one or two showers left over the northern two-thirds of, uh, Iraq during the course of this evening but better weather ahead later tonight and over the next couple of days as the wind dies down. Around here, not much wind. It's 70 in Morristown, 66 Belmar, 64 and partly sunny in Central Park going to 68 in midtown.]

> March 18 [James, we look for sunshine to be with us, uh, all day today and temperatures will respond and get up to about the 60 degree mark and then it'll be partly cloudy tonight, low 44. Increasing clouds tomorrow, a little cooler thanks to a breeze coming in off the water. High tomorrow 56. Rain at times Saturday, Saturday night, ending Sunday morning but brisk and, uh, pretty cool the rest of the day Sunday with the temperature not getting much at all above 50. Weather conditions in Iraq, uh, and Kuwait have improved, ur, improved considerably over the last 24 hours. Skies are clear, visibilities are much better, winds are much, much lighter and it does not look like weather is going to be, uh, any kind of a major player for at least the next few days. Around these parts it's 45 and sunny in Central Park, temperature today going up to 60.]

> March 19 [Sunshine still with us and temperature still climbing and it should get to 60 and even into the 60s today. It'll be coolest on the south shore of Long Island and the Connecticut coast with a southerly breeze coming in off the water. Then it clouds up tonight, could start to drizzle. We get drizzle and rain at times tomorrow, especially tomorrow night on into Sunday morning, could be some heavy rain and maybe a thunderstorm. The rain, um, er, probably at least the steady rain, ends Sunday morning but there still may be some rain showers around Sunday afternoon and it will be noticeably colder with temperatures no higher than the 40s. Right now, though, uh, it is 56 degrees and sunny in Central Park and the temperature today going up to, uh, about 60.]

> March 20 [Brisk and cold today, clouds and sunshine. We're going to have a high temperature near 42 degrees and for the Mets home opener it's the AccuWeather RealFeel temperature upper 20s and low 30s so definitely a bundle-up time, but a dry afternoon. Partly to mostly cloudy tonight, low 30 in midtown, 24 in outlying areas. Tomorrow turns out cloudy and as a warm front approaches we'll have some rain in the afternoon, could start as a little wet snow but the temperature by end of the day 44 northern suburbs, 50 in central Jersey, well up in the 40s in the city. Wednesday variable cloudiness, with a shower possible, high 50, then into the 50s with a few showers on Thursday. Meanwhile on the battlefield, sunshine, 70s today but 90s by the end of the week in many areas. Currently in midtown 32 degrees, relative humidity 51%, wind west northwest at 12. 32 heading for 42.]

> March 21 [That's exactly right, Judy. Clouds thickening over the next couple of hours then we expect some rain during the midday and early afternoon hours, could be some wet snow mixed in in the beginning but it won't stick. High today 42, tonight's low 40. Tomorrow some clouds and sun, perhaps a shower, high 54. Then we'll be close to the boundary between cool air and warm air on Thursday and Friday. We're calling Thursday clouds and sunshine, maybe a shower, high 59. Then Friday partly sunny and warmer, high 68 degrees with a thunderstorm possibility in the afternoon. On the battlefield, temperatures in the 80s in the afternoon hours through midweek, getting closer to 100 as we close out the week. Currently in midtown 33 degrees, relative humidity 49%, wind north at 5 miles per hour. 33 heading for 42.]

> March 22 [James it is.. I'm sorry Lee... we'll call you Lee, Lee, uh, it looks like the next couple of days we're gonna be close to a boundary between warm air with temperatures in the 70s from Philadelphia southward. However, upstate New York it probably stays in the 30s and 40s. Hopefully we get into the 50s today and tomorrow with a few breaks of sunshine. Central New Jersey and on, uh, inland it can get into the 60s. It can always sprinkle or shower but, uh, at least through tomorrow we're not looking for much in the way of rain. Friday rather cloudy, cool, high in the 50s, uh, chance of showers, maybe a late day thunderstorm. And then pretty cool on Saturday, may not get above 50 with some rain likely. Sunday partly sunny but chilly with a high of 48. Right now it is 45 and mostly cloudy in Central Park, temperature today going up to 54.]

> March 23 [A mostly cloudy cool day coming up today, the temperature will get to about 50 or maybe or maybe the low 50s and that's about it, drop back to about 40 with some clouds and patchy fog and drizzle tonight. Then it'll start to rain tomorrow, probably late in the day we'll have rain tomorrow night on into the day on Saturday with a high Saturday into the 50s. No, uh, genuine prospects for sunshine until Sunday but even then it'll be chilly, a high around 50. Uh, battlefield weather is sunny and hot in, uh, Baghdad, the temperature into the low 90s at this moment and it'll be middle to upper 90s tomorrow and over the weekend with 100 degrees plus in the southern and eastern deserts. Some gusty winds over the weekend could cause isolated pockets of, uh, blowing sand and reduced visibilities but nothing near as widespread as last week. Right now it's 44 and mostly cloudy in Central Park, temperature today going up to about 50.]

> March 24 [James, it's going to be overcast, drizzly with some fog today. We'll have drizzle, rain and fog tonight and tomorrow, uh, temperature today not going to go up much, it may even drop a couple of degrees and the lows tonight will be near 30 in the northern and western suburbs and that means there can be some freezing rain as well as just rain. High temperatures tomorrow 45 to 50. Sunday mostly sunny with a high around 50. The, uh, battlefield forecast, the heat will peak Saturday with highs in Baghdad near 100, then not as hot Sunday and Monday but windy at times. Those gusty winds will pick up some sand and dust and cause areas of reduced visibility. Right now it is 41 and cloudy in Central Park and our temperature today going up only to 43.]

> March 25 [Oh, just a damp and chilly day underway. There will be some occasional light rain and drizzle, some areas of fog and even a rumble or two of thunder. We'll have a high of just 44 degrees and then windy and cold with clearing skies tonight, low 36. A sunny but windy and chilly day with a high around 50 degrees. Monday, cloudy, windy, and cold with some snow, sleet and rain and we're probably going to be talking accumulations north and west of the city. Monday's high just 40 degrees, though, cloudy with a chance for lingering rain Tuesday, especially during the morning with a high around 50 and partly sunny Wednesday with a high around near 50 degrees. Battlefield forecast is as follows: we do have a partly cloudy sky with gusty winds over Saturday night and a mix of clouds and sun with blowing sand and dust on Sunday. It's 37 degrees right now, heading up to 44 in midtown.]

> March 26 [We are going to have increasing and thickening clouds tonight, Laurie, and, uh, temperatures will, for the most part, be between 25 and 32 at daybreak on Monday. Then get ready for the snow. It will tend to mix with some sleet and freezing rain in some locations, uh, but we're looking at a significant accumulation, especially for this time of year. Uh, most places will get between 4 and 8 inches. We've got the winter storm warnings in effect for Monday and early Monday night. It should wind down Monday night as a few flurries and some drizzle. Still, it's going to be tough getting around tomorrow so allow yourself some extra time. The high tomorrow in the mid-30s, Monday night's low about 30 degrees. And it's going to be cloudy on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday and on the cool side. The battlefield forecast, Baghdad tomorrow could be a rain or, uh, thunderstorm, uh, shower. Temperatures will be in the upper 80s. It'll be hotter Tuesday. Back home 41 in midtown right now. Clear, relative humidity 44%, the wind northeast 7 miles per hour. Clear and 41 heading down to 32.]

> March 27 [It's getting closer and closer now. It is now snowing now in Hunterdon and Somerset counties, parts of southern Morris and Union counties as well, and the snow is spreading eastward. It will spread across the metropolitan area within the next hour to two hours and then we look for heavy snow this afternoon and on into this evening. An average accumulation across the metropolitan area 4 to 8 inches. Keep in mind during the day today, during the daylight hours, temperatures high enough so that a lot of the snow is going to melt, at least initially on city streets and highways and parkways but they can get slushy and slippery in spots for sure, uh, there can even be, uh, a few extra inches in the hilly areas north and west of Interstate 287 but an average, we think, of four to six or eight inches across most of the tri-state area. Right now it's 36 and cloudy in Central Park. Temperature today going down to 32.]

> March 28 [Well, a cloudy day today, uh, there's been a little drizzle, there's been a little freezing drizzle, there'll continue to be a little drizzle at times, uh, during the day today with a high of 36. We look for some rain, eh, at time tonight and tomorrow. Low tonight 34 and the high tomorrow 40. It's cloudy Thursday, there's still the chance for some rain, a high in the 40s. And then we may have a major storm, uh, even a nor'easter come up the eastern seaboard Friday, Friday night into Saturday morning, odds favor rain, coastal areas and maybe some gusty winds as well, high tides and all of that, clearing beginning later on Saturday. Right now it's 31 and cloudy in Central Park, temperature today going up to 36.]

> March 29 [James, we've got rain all across the metropolitan area now, there's been a little bit of sleet that's bounced around but this is, uh, mostly just a cold, wet, nasty rain and it'll rain pretty steadily into the middle part of the afternoon with, uh, a high of 38. Clouds tonight, low 34. Variable cloudiness tomorrow, perhaps a few brighter intervals, and, uh, if we, uh, get even a little bit of sun the temperature tomorrow will get into the 40s. Clouds, rain and wind back for Friday, in fact, could be pretty stormy. Friday afternoon and Friday night, with winds gusting, perhaps to 40 miles an hour. Clearing begins Saturday afternoon and Sunday looks mostly sunny and pleasant with a high near 60. Right now it's 35 and cloudy in Central Park, temperature today going up to 38.]

> March 30 [Well it will be a cool and breezy day today but no rain, and although there'll be a lot of clouds, uh, the sun will peek out from time to time in place to place and that gets temperatures into the 40s for the first time all week long. Tomorrow, though, a rainy windy day, uh, windy, chilly with temperatures in the low to middle 40s and some of the rain, tomorrow, tomorrow night will be heavy enough to cause street and highway flooding. It clears on Saturday and Sunday looks good, mostly sunny and the high 56 to 60. Iraqi weather has cooled down. It'll be dry through the weekend, relatively comfortable, 60s in the northern part of the country and, uh, no higher than the 80s in Baghdad. Right now Central Park, 40 degrees and cloudy, the high today 48.]

> March 31 [Well, it's not very nice outside and it's not going to get a whole lot, uh, in fact, probably not going to get any better as we go through the day. We're going to have rain intermittent today and tonight and into tomorrow morning, some of the rain will be heavy, eh, other times the rain can stop completely. And there will also continue to be a gusty wind, that wind gusting frequently to 30 miles per hour and occasionally to between 30 and 40 miles per hour. The temperature not much above 40 so not only is it wet, but it's kind of nasty and cold. Clearing tomorrow afternoon, though, and with the sun coming out, temperatures will jump into the 50s and then Sunday should be mostly sunny with a high around 60. But right now it's 40 and raining in Central Park and that wind out of the northeast, gusting to 29 miles per hour. Repeating the current temperature 40, going up to 44 today.]

> April 1 [Uh, thank you very much. It looks like the rain has ended in New York City. It should be ending across Long Island in the next couple of hours. Clouds will break for sunshine from west to east across the area. We'll have a high of 60. Mostly clear, brisk, cold tonight, low falling back to about 42. It'll be mostly sunny tomorrow, the high of 58. Partial sunshine, nice day for your Monday, high 64. Sunshine, breezy turning much warmer for Tuesday, with the high of 73 degrees. Currently 54 degrees in Bridgeport, some rain out in Islip, 51. In Central Park, 57 degrees, relative humidity 74%. Wind out the north northwest at 10 miles per hour. Repeating the current temperature 57 going up to 60 in midtown.]

> April 2 [Well, the region will be basting in plenty of sunshine that'll be overhead via the area of high pressure that moved in over the last twelve to twenty-four hours. A breezy and nice afternoon with the high of 58 degrees. Clear and cool tonight, low 40 midtown, 34 in the suburbs. And we'll see more in the way of sunshine as we head through the middle part of the week, temperatures actually moderating as we head through the day on Monday and Tuesday. Breezy Monday, high 64. Windy Tuesday with a high of 76 degrees. Sunshine, patchy clouds, breezy and warm, a high again of 76. 46 degrees and sunny in Central Park, humidity 58%, wind north at 3 miles per hour. Repeating the current temperature 46, we're headed up to 58 in midtown.]

> April 3 [Ah, still a dazzling day out there with bright sunshine, temperatures are, uh, almost to 50 degrees right now and we expect them to top out into the 60s today. It will be a gentle sea breeze that keeps shore points cooler but then, uh, tonight will be, uh, fair and relatively mild with a low about 50 and tomorrow, a gusty southwest wind combines with sunshine and temperatures tomorrow will be off to the races, 80 or above inland areas, probably at least 78 or 80 in midtown. Cooler on the south shore of Long Island and the Connecticut coast where the breeze comes in off the water. Still warm Wednesday but could be a late day thunderstorm and then it will be noticeably cooler Thursday and Friday, both of those days, eh, probably clouds and the chance of rain and the high temperatures not much above 50. Right now, though, 48 and bright and sunny in Central Park, temperature today going up to 64.]

> April 4 [Well for today and tomorrow, it will seem like we have sprung right past spring and into summer, but by the end of the week - by Thursday and Friday - we will have fallen back toward winter. But today and tomorrow, if you're a warm weather fan, will be to your liking. Sunshine, patchy clouds, a gusty southwest wind and in midtown as well as in adjacent New Jersey and the Hudson Valley, temperatures will climb to between 80 and 85, while it stays closer to 70 on the south shore of Long Island and the Connecticut coast. Thursday, though, we turn things around. The cold front passes through Wednesday night that could produce a shower or a thunderstorm and Thursday and Friday will be noticeably chillier with clouds, uh, some drizzle or rain and temperatures no higher than the 40s. Right now, though, we're already 53 and mostly sunny in Central Park, the temperature today going up to 81.]

> April 5 [We've got one more for you, James, but then quite a dramatic change tomorrow, but for the rest of the day today sunshine, a few patchy high clouds, a gusty breeze out of the southwest and high temperatures getting to between 80 and 85 in midtown, across most of New Jersey and up the Hudson Valley. Long Island will be cooler, especially the south shore. Maybe a shower tonight and it will turn colder overnight with a low near 40 and a dramatically colder day tomorrow, some 40 degrees colder than today with afternoon temperatures no higher than the 40s. Remaining cloudy, chilly Friday, chance for some rain, clouds breaking for some sun Saturday up to 56 and Easter Sunday looks OK, partly sunny with a high of 62. Right now, 67 and sunshine in Central Park, temperature today going up to 83.]

> April 6 [Well, once again WINS LiveScan DopplerRadar showing some of the, er, showers right along the, uh, Essex, Union county line just off to the north of Interstate 78 crossing, eh, 280, eh, once you get, eh, past, eh, West Orange, eh, Livingston in through that corridor as well as, eh, Bloomfield, Caldwell, so if you're in through this corridor, you've definitely got some wet weather to contend with as well as, uh, well, southern areas of Brooklyn down along the, um, er, well, down along the Belt Parkway quite honestly, once you get, eh, south of, eh, Linden Boulevard we have, uh, a couple of showers to contend with. We'll also get a little sun this afternoon, but, oh, that cold wind means business with the high of 46 degrees and while it may drizzle tonight and tomorrow, well, most of the time it's just going to be cloudy, cold. 36 tonight, 50 tomorrow, even Saturday's a damp start but we should see a little late day sun with the high of 58, so at least it does turn somewhat milder. Right now, though, it's only 39 Bellmar, 43 with the clouds Central Park, only going to 46 this afternoon in midtown.]

> April 7 [James, uh, a cloudy, chilly and brisk day, uh, temperature this afternoon will only be in the 40s. The wind will still be gusting to about 20 miles an hour. There can be a bit of drizzle, there can be bit of rain. The same goes for tonight and on into tomorrow morning. After that we do look for a slow improvement. The sky brightens tomorrow afternoon, the sun may come out, temperatures get into the 50s and then Easter Sunday looks OK. Mixed clouds and sun, the sunrise temperature about 45, the afternoon high on Sunday should be into the 60s. Right now, though, it's 38 and cloudy in Central Park, humidity at 92%, wind from the east, gusting to 21 miles an hour. Repeating the current temperature 38, going up to 48 today.]

> April 8 [Well, Susan, it's shaping up to be a pretty nice day across the tri-state area. So far lots of sunshine, uh, this morning, it looks like the sunshine will be sticking around through much of the day and with that sunshine temperatures up near 60 degrees in midtown for the afternoon. We stay dry tonight with clear to partly cloudy skies. Tomorrow's partly sunny as well and the high goes back up to 60 in the afternoon after a sunrise temperature tomorrow morning of 48 degrees. Clouds do return to the area Monday and then Monday night into Tuesday and we could see some rain. Monday's high 64, Tuesday's high 60. Currently sunny and 43 degrees in Central Park, the humidity 70% and the wind east at 10 miles an hour. Again the current temperature 43. It'll go up to 60 in midtown.]

> April 9 [Indeed it is dreary and dull, damp and dim. It's been this way since the day's dawn. Will it stay this way 'til its dreary and dull dim demise after dinner? We'll have to see but, if you live in eastern Nassau or Suffolk county, watch for some rain that's going to come ashore in about 15 or 20 minutes and sprinkle the area for about an hour. Rest of the area not too much in the way of showers the next couple of hours but there will be some more later today. Parts of the area can still have a thunderstorm, high 59. A leftover shower tomorrow tonight, low 46, then tomorrow becoming partly sunny. Cool winds, gusty winds, temperatures won't get out of the 50s. Thursday looks like a nice day, still windy, high 64. Friday sunshine, more tranquil, a high 66. Currently 47 degrees, relative humidity 100%, winds out of the northeast at 8 miles per hour. 47 heading to 59.]

> April 10 [We'll have a mixture of clouds and sunshine today, a gusty wind. It's going to be cool, temperature getting to about 58 this afternoon then clearing, windy and chilly tonight, low 42 in midtown, 34 in some suburbs. Now, as the high pressure area that's now in the Midwest moves toward us, tomorrow will be a sunny day with a gusty wind but milder, high 64 late in the day as the high pressure area moves offshore. Friday looks nice to start followed by increasing cloudiness, high 66. And a storm that's causing rain to spread across Kansas, Oklahoma, and Nebraska today can reach us with rain Friday night into Saturday, Saturday's high 56. Currently it's 46, relative humidity 62%. Winds out of the west at 10 gusting to 18. 46 heading for, to, 58.]

> April 11 [Well, uh, Cheryl, the, uh, current 1010 WINS DopplerRadar filling in across the tri-state area, we're seeing, uh, fairly light rainfall right now but we're anticipating that the intensity of the rain will be picking up very late tonight and tomorrow morning, uh, so a soggy Saturday definitely, uh, if you have some chores to do this weekend indoors, tomorrow would be the day to do them and I think that Sunday if you want to get outside it'll be a much nicer day but we're gonna be dealing with this storm system for the next 24 hours or so. The low overnight in midtown with the rain 48, tomorrow's high only 52 but as the rain comes to an end, probably tomorrow evening as some drizzle, you should see some late night clearing Sunday, it'll be a bit on the windy side but with sunshine, highs will reach the mid and upper 60s. Monday also will be about 68. Our next shot at getting a shower Tuesday. Cloudy, 52 in midtown. Right now relative humidity 89%, the wind variable, 6 miles per hour. Cloudy, 52. We're heading down to 48.]

> April 12 [Good morning Susan. It's kind of a windy, wet, cool start to this weekend, in fact, uh, today looks like, eh, kind of a washout. Occasional rain, in fact the rain can come down hard enough we could see a little bit of street and highway flooding, the high 56. Tonight drizzle in the evening then partial clearing, a low 48. What a big improvement for Sunday with bright sunshine a high of 70 degrees, sunny to partly cloudy, up to 74 on Monday. Uh, Tuesday it'll stay warm. We'll still go into the mid-70s but there is a chance for a shower. Right now we have 49 in White Plains, it's 47 in Bridgeport. Cloudy and 50 in Central Park with a humidity of 100%, the winds east at 9. Repeating the current temperature 50 going up to 56 today.]

> April 13 [Well it looks like our weather will be just beautiful for today, Monday looking nice, Tuesday even looks pretty nice, uh, even though a cold front will come through by then that could trigger a shower but today just sunshine and a high of 68. Clear and comfortable tonight, 54 in midtown, 42 in the suburbs. We'll go up to 76 with the sunshine tomorrow. Cooler on the coast and on the Island. And on Tuesday, intervals of clouds and sun as a cold front approaches the region, maybe a shower, the high 74. Currently we have 50 degrees in Bridgeport and White Plains partly sunny 52 in Central Park, 89% humidity and northwest wind at 9. 52 right now going up to 68.]

> April 14 [We'll take it, huh, Brian? This is a beautiful day and, uh, actually we got nice weather for much of the, uh, coming week, uh, we've got, uh, mostly clear skies tonight, temperatures heading for the mid, upper 50s, uh, even warmer tomorrow, 82 under a partly sunny sky. Uh, we will cool it down a little bit on Wednesday, there's going to be a front slipping through here tomorrow morning, uh, Wednesday will be in the upper 60s. But that's still a nice day, lots of sunshine. Thursday partly sunny and 68. Friday, low 70s, uh, cloudy to partly sunny on Friday and that's our first chance of seeing a shower or thunderstorm as there will be a cold front moving through probably Friday evening. Right now 66 at JFK with a sea breeze, 76 in Central Park, sunny and a south wind at 20 miles an hour. Repeating the current temperature 76 going down to 58 in midtown.]

> April 15 [Uh, we have Brian, uh, it's, uh, a very small area of some light rain it's, uh, gonna be over very very shortly as a matter of fact in the city and, uh, mmm, looking at definitely less than a tenth of an inch, uh, so it's just enough, uh, to hold the dust down. Uh, the clouds leave in part for some sunshine once again for the late afternoon hours. Uh, temperatures obviously have cooled off here with the rain falling and we will bounce back into at least the lower 70s here once, uh, uh, the clouds break up once again. Uh, the evening hours will be nice and then tonight will be clear to partly cloudy a low of 52. Next couple of days, uh, some nice weather, lots of sunshine 68 tomorrow, partly sunny on Thursday with a high around 70 degrees. Uh, do expect to see some showers, maybe a thunderstorm in the, uh, Thursday night, Friday time period, that'll be the next, uh, front. Uh, could even be, uh, some steadier rain, uh, Friday night into Saturday as a storm develops along that frontal boundary, then we'll start to clear out Saturday afternoon. Sunday should be nice. In Central Park reporting some light rain and we've cooled off to 60 degrees. Uh, still a northwest wind 15 to 25 miles an hour. Repeating the current temperature 60 going up to 79 in midtown.]

> April 16 [Fine day today. Cloudiness and some sunshine. There are a couple of showers, uh, 20 to 30 miles north of the city that'll bypass and we're going to have a very nice afternoon. Uh, high temperature 68, partly cloudy tonight low 52 as the front moves south of us yesterday with a shower in the afternoon moves back north as a warm front tomorrow. Can't rule out a shower but overall clouds and sunny breaks, the high 70. Friday clouds and some sun, a warm day high 72. Showers and thunderstorms possible especially in the afternoon to tonight. Saturday looks like it'll start damp but then turn partly sunny in the afternoon, high 62. Currently winds out of the north at 4 miles per hour, the relative humidity a low 43%. 55 in midtown heading for 68.]

> April 17 [Well, cloudiness today there will be some showers around, they can occur just about any time, one batch of showers has gone by but new ones are forming southwest. High 66 degrees, cooler on the south shore of Long Island and coastal Connecticut. Part to mostly cloudy breezy tonight low 58. Tomorrow clouds wrap some sunny breaks. Breezy and warm but a pushing cold front can cause showers and thunderstorms just about any time best chance is the afternoon and night. High 72 now. Assuming the front leaves, chance of morning rain then clearing Saturday. Front stalls all bets are off on clearing. High Saturday 60. Sunday looks to be sunny, high 64. Currently in midtown, relative humidity 92%, wind is out of the north at 4 miles per hour. It's 54 degrees heading for 66.]

> April 18 [It's a mild morning. It's going to be a warm day today, the temperatures likely to climb well into the 70s. Lots of sunshine for a while then cloudiness during the course of the afternoon there can be a thunderstorm, any thunderstorm that develops can be strong and gusty. Temperature today climbing well into the 70s. Then for tonight clouds and a few showers and a thunderstorm then tomorrow turning cooler, some sun by afternoon. Low tonight 52, high tomorrow 60. Sunday looks like a sunny cool day, high 64. Monday partly sunny, high 64. Currently the winds out of the east at 4 miles per hour, the relative humidity 80%. 62 degrees heading well up into the 70s this afternoon before cool air arrives.]

> April 19 [Well, I suppose some folks might like it just a little warmer but, uh, it's still going to be very nice for early May today. We'll see sunshine, some clouds, a high of 64. It'll mainly be clear and chilly tonight, we'll go down to 38 in some of those colder suburbs, you know who you are, uh, down to about 48 in midtown. Sunshine followed by clouds tomorrow, still a cool breeze with a high of 62, mostly cloudy with a cool breeze Tuesday. Showers, maybe an afternoon thunderstorm the high 60 to 64. Warmer on Wednesday but still a chance for a thunderstorm. Right now partly sunny 51 in Central Park. It's 49 at Kennedy and also at LaGuardia. It's 51 at Central Park and it's going up to 64.]

> April 20 [We're gonna have increasing cloudiness today as that massive storm system from the middle of the country comes eastward, uh, we do not believe the risk of tornadic thunderstorms is, uh, very high here but we're gonna get some rain starting either late this afternoon or early this evening. We'll have off and on rain tonight and on into tomorrow. And it'll be kind of cool with a breeze coming in off the water. Today it can get to 60 or a little bit above but highs tomorrow not too far into the 50s. It'll get warmer Wednesday, clouds can break for some sun, could also be a shower or a thunderstorm, high Wednesday 73 and then mostly cloudy on Thursday, high in the 60s. Right now it's 54 and partly sunny in Central Park. Temperature today going up to 60.]

> April 21 [James, it's a gray, kind of a drizzly morning and it's gonna stay that way all day, uh, there will be drizzle every now and then there could be enough rain to form a puddle and to wet things down. The same goes for tonight, also areas of fog and that fog could become pretty thick in places, uh, as we get into tonight and tomorrow morning. Temperatures today get into the 50s but, eh, probably not the 60s. Tomorrow we'll get milder, into the 60s, uh, then there's, uh, a period of rain and maybe a thunderstorm tomorrow night into, into, eh, Thursday morning followed by a dry period Thursday afternoon into Friday but maybe more showers again later Friday. So, stringing a long period of dry weather and certainly stringing a couple of sunny days in this weather pattern together is gonna be pretty tough. Right now it's 48 and cloudy. Central Park, the temperature today going up to 58.]

> April 22 [It's cloudy and gray but not much going on in terms of precipitation. We'll have a couple of showers around today, mostly this morning but the vast majority of the time we'll just see clouds, high 66. Partly to mostly cloudy tonight, low 54. Tomorrow a little brighter. Clouds and sunny breaks, high about 68 degrees and Saturday should also be partly sunny though a shower can't be ruled out, high 68. Showers a better bet for Sunday maybe a thunderstorm. High temperature 68 on Mother's Day. Currently winds out of the east at 7 miles per hour, the relative humidity 96%. 58 degrees in midtown heading for 66.]

> April 23 [And what we have here tonight, Brian, is, uh, looks like, uh, dry weather from this point on. The light shower activity that, uh, was over the region is, uh, now moved offshore, uh, partly to mostly cloudy skies, temperatures in the low to middle 50s at daybreak, uh, tomorrow little bit of sunshine and a milder afternoon. Upper 60s to low 70s for a high. Maybe, uh, a shower, thunderstorm also in the afternoon or evening hours but better chance for showers and th, uh, thunderstorms coming along later Sunday afternoon, Sunday night, that from a strong storm, which is, uh, still back in the Rockies right now. It'll be moving into Kansas tomorrow morning and then up into the Great Lakes on Sunday and, uh, sweeping, uh, a strong cold front over toward the East Coast. A high on Sunday around 64. Currently we have 63 degrees, a cloudy sky, a southwest wind at 8. Repeating the current temperature 63 going down to 54 in midtown.]

> April 24 [Mostly cloudy skies overnight, uh, temperatures in the mid-50s come daybreak and our Sunday will also be mostly cloudy with a couple of rounds of showers and thunderstorms, mainly during the afternoon and early evening as a strong cold front, uh, sweeps over to the eastern seaboard. A high temperature around 65. Gusty winds and cool conditions both Monday and Tuesday. Intervals of clouds and sunshine, just the possibility of a shower either day. 68 degrees on Monday, 66 on Tuesday. Wednesday lighter winds and partly sunny with a high of around 68. Currently we have 56 at JFK, 64, mostly cloudy in Central Park, a south wind at 5 to 10. Repeating the current temperature 64 going down the 56 in midtown.]

> April 25 [We'll continue to have that patchy dense fog around the area this morning. That should burn off over the next couple of hours. Then the next threat comes in this afternoon as we have some locally heavy thunderstorms that will move through the area, especially to the west of the city. We'll have a high today of about 70 degrees. Evening showers, thunderstorm tonight then clearing, breezy turning cooler with a low falling back to 53. Both tomorrow and Tuesday will be windy with times of fog and sunshine, could see a shower either day with highs in the mid to upper 60s. And as we look ahead to Wednesday, a partly sunny, pleasant day with a high of 68. Dense fog at White Plains right now 56 degrees. 58 degrees at Islip. In Central Park, 61 degrees, relative humidity 93% and the winds east, northeast at 7 miles per hour. Repeating the current temperature 61 going up to 70 in midtown.]

> April 26 [We'll continue to have that patchy dense fog around the area this morning. That should burn off over the next couple of hours.

> April 27 [Well, a glance at the WINS DopplerRadar not much out there but a couple of showers most notable, just off to the south of Danbury, Connecticut and also, uh, kind of sandwiched in between the Garden State Parkway and 287, eh, coming down through, eh, Bergen, Passaic, as well as Essex, Morris counties, Union, in through that area. But again, it's more miss than hit. We'll have clouds and limited sun this afternoon with the high of 68 degrees. What we're going to notice tonight is the increase in the wind, lock stock and barrel. Low temperature 52 degrees and when I say it's a bad hair day tomorrow, that's an understatement on my part here. Clouds, limited sun, maybe an afternoon shower. Forget the umbrella. High 66. Wednesday will take the wind down a notch, partly sunny with the high 68. It's currently 70 Belmar, 60 with the clouds in Central Park, going to 68 this afternoon in midtown.]

> April 28 [James, we're starting out today O.K. with, uh, mixed clouds and sun. We think as the day wears on there will tend to be more in the way of cloud cover. We're still under the circulation of large storm system which is centered, uh, northern New York state over the Adirondacks. And that could produce a shower or two as we go through this afternoon and this evening. Showers mostly of the brief variety. High today 64 then clearing late tonight, low 52. Sunshine in pretty good supply tomorrow. That should be a nice day, high 68. Increasing clouds Thursday and some rain again Thursday night and Friday. Right now it's 52 and partly sunny in Central Park, temperature today going up to 64.]

> April 29 [A better today, James, although it's not going to stay completely sunny. There will be cloudy intervals and there will still be a cool breeze. But with the sun out at least at times, temperatures get into the 60s, probably the upper 60s this afternoon. Then it'll be fair and cool tonight, low around 50. Increasing clouds tomorrow and we do look for some rain again as we get into tomorrow night and during the day Friday. And a cool day Friday, with a breeze coming in off the ocean, temperatures only in the 50s. However we are optimistic about improving weather for the weekend. Gradual clearing Saturday, high 62 and partly to mostly sunny on Sunday, high 68. Right now it's 54 partly sunny in Central Park, temperature today going up to 68.]

> April 30 [We still have sunshine and, uh, temperatures are getting into the 60s now and although clouds will increase as we go through the afternoon, it'll still be comfortable with temperatures, uh, getting close to 70 or at least on well up into the 60s. However the increasing clouds, the result of a storm which is in the Ohio Valley now, that storm is going to hit the eastern seaboard tomorrow and intensify and, around these parts, tomorrow is not looking like a nice day. Rain, some of it heavy, tomorrow and tomorrow night, ending Saturday morning. There'll also be gusty winds out of the east. They will be strong enough to raise concerns about some coastal flooding at the time of high tide tomorrow and tomorrow night. The atmosphere will dry Saturday afternoon. Sunday looks good, mostly sunny with a high of 68. Right now it is 62 and sunny in Central Park, temperature today going up to 68.]

> May 1 [Yeah, that's a good way to put it. Radar right now showing a little bit of light rain across Staten Island on further south and west and that'll be about where it stays for the overnight hours into the first part of tomorrow morning a low 48 degrees. Then later tomorrow, still gusty winds, still fairly cold, drizzle to start then little bit breaks of sunshine, a high around 60. Lingering clouds and some late night fog tomorrow night, low 48. Here comes the improvement on Sunday, turning out mostly sunny, noticeably milder with a high of 68 degrees. Plenty of sunshine on Monday with a high of 74 and partly sunny and real nice on Tuesday, high 76. 52 right now in the Park, 54 in Newark and 53 de, er, degrees at LaGuardia. Repeating the current temperature 52 going down to 48 in midtown.]

> May 2 [Well, a few clouds lingering south and west of the city. Turned out to be a nice sunny afternoon, north and east. Tonight no exception, uh, partly cloudy, uh, watch for some late night fog, though, a low of 46 degrees a nice day tomorrow, though, with plenty of sunshine and a high of 68. Mostly clear skies tomorrow night low 52 and another sunny day on Monday with a high of 74. Tuesday not looking too bad either, partly sunny with a high of 74 degrees. Right now in midtown 59 degrees, northeast winds at 9 miles per hour. Repeating the current temperature 59 going down to 46 in midtown.]

> May 3 [It'll be mostly sunny and warm today, it's going up toward 80. A little cooler in coastal areas, then increasing clouds tonight, low 58. Tomorrow mostly cloudy with a couple of showers as a cold front arrives, high 72, then behind the front mostly cloudy and cooler. Thursday, there still could be a shower, high 64. It's going to turn rainy at the end of the week for Friday and Saturday, temperatures in the 50s to low 60s at best. Currently winds out of the northeast at 3 miles per hour, beautifully sunny, relative humidity 50%, 67 heading for 80.]

> May 4 [Well, uh, Doug, on this Tuesday evening, 1010 WINS DopplerRadar showing a few showers to the west of the tri-state area mainly around eastern and central Pennsylvania. These are associated with a cool front that will be approaching us tomorrow. And as it does, it'll be slowing down and virtually stalling along the eastern seaboard. And, of course that doesn't bode well for our weather here for the remainder of the week. Temperatures tomorrow around 70 degrees, this despite clouds and a few showers and, uh, a wave of low pressure moving up from the southeastern United States, cruising along that nearly stationary front, I think that is what will have some very soggy implications for things around here, uh, Friday and especially Friday night, uh, temperatures Thursday expected to be no higher than the mid-60s, that's well below normal and then just as the Memorial Day weekend holiday gets started, the rain will be kicking in. Partly cloudy, 65 in midtown right now, relative humidity 36%, the wind light and variable. It's partly cloudy, 65 heading down to 58.]

> May 5 [Well the rain has stopped from the city westbound, at least from midtown westbound, but we still find rain from Nassau eastbound, across Long Island. Looking live at 1010 WINS DopplerRadar, I can tell that it'll be a while before the rain stops in those areas. We're gonna stay wet, at least damp early tonight and late tonight, simply cloudy, we'll cool down to 52. Mostly cloudy, breezy cool weather tomorrow, rain could return to the area late in the day, a high of 60, if not late in the day then tomorrow night. We'll be dealing with the rain. That rain will continue Friday. Friday's high temperature only 58 and, yes, unfortunately it looks like rain on Saturday as well to kick off the holiday weekend, continued cool, somewhat windy, high of 60 degrees. Most of that rain should be over Sunday. Sunday mostly cloudy, high of 66. Right now it's 60, cloudy in Central Park, 96% humidity, winds variable 6 miles per hour. Repeating the current temperature 60 going down to 52 in midtown.]

> May 6 [Well, Lori, we have a damp night in the tri-state area, current 1010 WINS DopplerRadar showing most of the light rain over Long Island and, uh, coastal areas but, uh, actually a bit of drizzle occurring at at all the airports right now and it's cloudy in midtown, temperatures, they're not going to change much overnight. 51 right now in midtown, we're heading down to 50 and as we get the, uh, Friday started up, eh, the getaway day for the Memorial Day holiday weekend, more of this damp weather. We're waiting, actually, on a storm system organizing in Georgia right now to bring the real rain of consequence, most of that should occur Friday night and then Saturday it should stay dull and damp throughout much of the weekend, although we hold out hope for some brightening, uh, with, uh, Sunday afternoon and Monday rolling around. Right now cloudy, 51 in midtown, relative humidity 100%, the wind northeast 10 miles per hour. It's cloudy and 51, heading down to 50.]

> May 7 [Well, the rest of this afternoon it'll be kind of dreary out there, lots of clouds, windy, cool, patchy fog, also intermittent rain and drizzle with a high of 58 degrees. Shower drizzle lingers early tonight, maybe some clearing late, patchy fog continuing, well, falling back to 54. For tomorrow, a warmer day with clouds breaks and sunshine. Could be a shower or thunderstorm in the afternoon with a high of 72 degrees. Clouds, limited sunshine for Memorial Day, couple of showers and a thunderstorm possible with a high of 64. And a chance of a shower even lingers into Tuesday. Currently in Central Park, a cloudy sky, 53 degrees, relative humidity 100% and winds out of the east at 14 miles per hour. Repeating the current temperature 53 going up to 58 degrees in midtown.]

> May 8 [Well, the rain has moved away from the area, however we we'll still have a lot of clouds around tonight, kind of a damp night, patchy fog will form with a low falling back to about 50. For Tuesday a mostly cloudy day, could see an afternoon or nighttime shower, we'll have a high of 66 on Tuesday. Low on Tuesday night of 56. It continues mostly cloudy on Wednesday, couple of showers possible, high once again 56 degrees. And as we look ahead to Thursday, a little bit of sunshine, a little bit warmer, but still a chance of a shower or a thunderstorm with a high of 74 degrees. Currently 55 degrees in Newark, in Central Park a cloudy sky, 54 degrees, relative humidity 97% and a wind variable at 5 miles per hour. Repeating the current temperature 54 going down to 50 in midtown.]

> May 9 [We've got a very nice morning, certainly a lot better than yesterday looked at this time. As we go through out the afternoon, we'll have an increase in cloudiness, not out of the question there's a shower, but basically it's going to remain dry now. Tonight showers are going to come in, most of them late tonight, the low 56. Tomorrow will be a rainy day at times, high 64 at best, may stay in the low 60s. Thursday, though, cloudy to partly sunny and milder, could be an afternoon shower or thunderstorm, high 74, then Friday partly sunny and breezy, high 78 degrees. Currently in midtown it's 61. The relative humidity is 72%. The wind is light and variable, still sunny but it will turn cloudy for the afternoon, 61 heading for 68.]

> May 10 [Well, 1010 WINS DopplerRadar not showing any significant rain, uh, around the metropolitan area at this point. There might be a sprinkle over the next few hours but a little bit of a break. However there is another disturbance producing some rain in central Pennsylvania. The bulk of that will slide by to our south but a couple of showers around here this afternoon and early this evening and then then clouds linger tonight. Tomorrow we look for breaks of sunshine and that'll get temperatures into the low to maybe middle 70s tomorrow. Couple of showers, maybe a thunderstorm tomorrow afternoon and night and there may yet be a shower Friday morning. Then partly sunny, breezy during the day Friday, high about 70. Partly sunny Saturday high into the 70s but yet another chance of showers later Saturday or Saturday night. Right now it's 57 and cloudy in Central Park, humidity is 93% and the wind is calm. Repeating the current temperature 57 going up to 64 today.]

> May 11 [This time around we've got to flip up the expanded view of WINS LiveScan DopplerRadar. We are seeing the beginnings of thunder shower activity but it's as far away as Poughkeepsie so nothing close to home just yet, still more sunshine than clouds. We'll manage 76 for a high temperature but it does go to show the fact that at least one or two neighborhoods can pick up a thunderstorm by this evening. Otherwise patchy clouds tonight, low 58. While tomorrow might start with a little bit of fog, I don't think it's going to be a scenario where we have to leave early to work or school. The balance of the day is going to be partly sunny and warm so plan accordingly. High 78. Unfortunately the clouds move in over the weekend, high 70 on Saturday and starting Saturday afternoon through the nighttime hours it is a soaker. Right now 70 in Bridgeport, 73 and mostly sunny in Central Park going to 76 this afternoon in midtown so get out and enjoy it.]

> May 12 [Nice day today. Beautiful. Sunshine. Afternoon temperature getting to about 80. Then tonight partly cloudy low 62. Even tomorrow could start out OK but then showers and thunderstorms will visit as a cold front approaches, low pressure area will be strengthing over us. Some of the rain could wind up being heavy, some of the thunderstorms could be gusty. Tomorrow's high 70 and some more showers tomorrow night. With a storm offshore on Sunday, it'll turn into a windy cool day, plenty of cloudiness. There could be some showers left over, not out of the question, starts to clear late in the day but the main theme is windy and cool, high 68. Then Monday things start to settle down, partly sunny, high 74 degrees. Currently it's 63 in midtown, relative humidity 72%, wind out of the north at 5 miles per hour. 63 heading to 70 in time for lunch and to 80 this afternoon.]

> May 13 [WINS DopplerRadar shows, uh, a small but fairly intense thunderstorm, uh, just west of the city now, this is just southwest of Orange and into Union and is going to be following I-78, uh, right into, uh, Elizabeth, uh, clipping, uh, probably Jersey City and the upper portion of Staten Island in a few moments, uh, you can expect some brief, heavy downpours, uh, with this particular cell. Uh, smaller and lighter showers just about to move into White Plains, uh, heading eastward and that'll eventually get into Greenwich in a few moments, uh, so we've got a little action around here this afternoon and, uh, a little later on tonight just partly cloudy skies, the low around 62. Now for tomorrow and tomorrow night as a matter of fact, mostly cloudy skies, uh, showers, they will become more numerous as we get into the afternoon, uh, some heavier thunderstorms as well and by the time this one's over, uh, we could have, uh, quite a dose of rain, uh, through Sunday morning, uh, probably three-quarters to maybe an inch-and-a-half of water, temperatures near 70 tomorrow, mid 50s tomorrow night. Sunday a very windy day on the back side of this storm. Clouds, breaks of sun and a few more showers, the high only 69. Currently we have, uh, 78 degrees with some sun in Central Park, a west wind at 5. Repeating the current temperature 78 going down to 62 in midtown.]

> May 14 [Well, we've had a bit of a break over the last hour or so across the five boroughs but there are more showers coming our way from, uh, central New Jersey and eastern Pennsylvania. There's still rain up the Hudson Valley, there's still rain in Connecticut, there's still rain on Suffolk County and eastern Nassau. So it's going to be a wet evening and a wet night, some of the rain heavy enough to produce street and highway flooding and a flood watch remains in effect for areas north and west of the city. Tomorrow morning will be rainy and windy. The rain will end around midday but the wind will continue to be strong and gusty all day tomorrow, upwards of 40 miles per hour, even higher. Slowly diminishing wind tomorrow night and Monday and Tuesday will be much nicer days with sunshine and temperatures back into the 70s. Right now it's 61 and mostly cloudy in Central Park, temperature tonight going down to 56.]

> May 15 [Well, the flash flood watch continues until 11:41 this morning for pretty much all of the area west and north of New York City. We're seeing some urban and street and highway flooding even in and around the city as well as, uh, heavy rain is in the area and we have a flood warning for the Mahwah River up around Suffern, New York. So, uh, all kinds of, uh, wonderful stuff going on this morning with all of the rain and wind. We'll see things begin to abate this afternoon, the rain letting up, in fact it'll end by late this afternoon, the high 64. Windy, chilly tonight, down to 54. Tomorrow and Tuesday a couple of very nice days, a high in the mid-70s. Right now, some rain, 58 in Central Park. Repeating the current temperature 58 going up to 64.]

> May 16 [And it's a forecast that contains rain once again. Another storm is, uh, moving across Missouri right now puttin' down a lot of water across, uh, Illinois and this system is going to be tracking due east the next, uh, forty-eight hours, moving across Kentucky, West Virginia and Virginia, oh, but that's close enough and it's gonna deliver some rain here once again. Overnight, though, it's mostly clear and comfortable and Tuesday is a nice day with sunshine, uh, fading behind the clouds with a high of 70. Rain comes in tomorrow evening, continues rather steadily throughout the night, a low of 52. Wednesday, a cloudy, cool day with off-and-on rain and drizzle, a high of 63. And by Thursday, the system will be well offshore. The clouds will break for some sunshine once again and will warm things back up. 74 on Thursday. Friday partly sunny and 78. Currently 69 degrees, a clear sky in Central Park, the wind west at 7 to 14 miles per hour. Repeating the current temperature 69, going down to 56 in midtown.]

> May 17 [Mostly cloudy for a time this evening. Partly cloudy overnight and no rain to talk about, for a change, a low of 58 degrees and, in fact, tomorrow will turn out quite pleasant with a good deal of sunshine. Noticeably warmer with a high near 80 tomorrow afternoon, although cooler near the beaches. Clear early tomorrow night, increasing clouds late at night, a low of 64. We're back to mostly cloudy skies Saturday, looks like showers and a thunderstorm or two during the afternoon, high of 72 degrees. Drying out on Sunday, and a mix of clouds and sun, high of 74, maybe a shower or two Monday and a high of 72. Right now 69 and cloudy in Central Park. 54% humidity, a west wind at 10 miles per hour, gusting to 18 miles per hour. Repeating the current temperature 69 going down to 58 in midtown.]

> May 18 [Well, I just can't find anything bad with today's weather here, still lots of sunshine, temperatures gradually approaching 80 degrees midtown, cooler coastal Connecticut and on Long Island, of course, but, uh, even as we head on into tonight it stays dry. Clear skies will make way for more clouds after midnight. A low of 64 degrees midtown, 58 throughout the suburbs. That's not bad. Unfortunately if you're headed out and about over the course of the weekend, hey, it's the, uh, summer holiday season. 72 degrees with a lot of cloud cover tomorrow. Keep in mind you'll need the, uh, well the bubushkas, the ponchos, the, er, ra, well, the Paddington bear weather gear starting tomorrow afternoon and you know what -- all kidding aside -- late tomorrow, tomorrow night the possibility of flooding does exist with this nasty storm. Sunday could start off damp. Otherwise it turns partly sunny breezy high 76. Right now 72 Islip, 73 with the sun in Central Park. We'll manage 80 this afternoon in midtown.]

> May 19 [A little cloudiness for the balance of the morning. This afternoon the clouds may break allowing temperatures to get into the mid-70s, to about 76. Clear tonight low 64. Tomorrow should be a sunny, warm day, high 82. A front now crossing the Plains states may trigger a couple of showers and thunderstorms during the day Wednesday, high 80, before that system moves offshore Thursday. That day should be partly sunny, high 78. Currently in midtown 60 degrees, the relative humidity is 75%, still cloudy, heading for 76 this afternoon.]

> May 20 [Well, James, dew points are well into the 60s at this hour around the region, that's an indication of how humid it is. Those high dew points will help fuel more showers and a thunderstorm around the tri-state as we head through the afternoon hours. Currently I see some showers north of the Tappan Zee and across a good bit of Connecticut but little rain across New Jersey. Our high this afternoon will approach 80. Rain at times and muggy tonight and tomorrow, even a thunderstorm or two, maybe even some flooding problems, the low 66. High tomorrow 74, cooler on Long Island and in Connecticut. Lots of clouds, maybe a little sun at times over the weekend but still a chance for a shower each day, especially Saturday, high both days 74. Right now 73 in White Plains and Islip, 74, mostly cloudy in Central Park. Relative humidity 81%, winds west at 5 miles per hour. Repeating the current temperature 74 going up to 80 in midtown.]

> May 21 [And, what we have here is, uh, very humid conditions for the nighttime hours, uh, temperatures only dipping back into the mid 60s. Uh, it has been, uh, quiet on the WINS DopplerRadar, uh, we did have quite a bit of rain north of the city all day long and the rain is now starting to show up, uh, as to our southwest, this is getting into the, uh, Harrisburg, Lancaster area. Heavy thunderstorms out in Washington and Baltimore and it's all pushing northeastward toward us. Uh, we are expecting to see periods of rain late tonight and tomorrow, even a thunderstorm. Uh, temperatures tomorrow in the low to mid 70s. Tomorrow night, uh, leftover showers or thunderstorms and as we go through the weekend, uh, improving conditions. Saturday is a transition day, uh, we'll see clouds break for some sun but there still could be a shower or thunderstorm but Sunday should be partly sunny and 74 and then lots of sunshine on Monday. Currently cloudy skies 77 degrees, an east wind at 7. Repeating the current temperature 77, going down to 66 in midtown.]

> May 22 [Well, our flood watch continues in effect until midnight for Rockland, Bergen, Essex, Passaic and Union counties but WINS LiveScan DopplerRadar not really showing much on anything out there. A lot of cloud cover, uh, there's the shower here and there along with the spot of drizzle, but 74 degrees. That's not all that bad. High humidity, temperatures running in the 60s, Long Island and Connecticut. Late this afternoon throughout the, uh, first part of the nighttime hours, this is our best bet to pick up a heavier thunderstorm. Later on tonight just be cautious about fog, low 68. But honestly, tomorrow's not much of a change. Clouds, a little bit of sun, still warm and humid, we're up at 80 degrees but still the threat of a shower and thunderstorm primarily during the midday and the afternoon. It's on Sunday that we finally dry things out with the high near 80. Right now it's 67 degrees Newark, 63 with the clouds in Central Park going up to 74 this afternoon in midtown.]

> May 23 [Uh, gray skies tonight, humid conditions, areas of dense fog, drizzle. On top of that a coupla showers, even an evening thunderstorm, uh, right now we have some thunderstorms over southeastern Pennsylvania, working their way slowly northeastward toward us. Uh, temperatures, uh, steady. We're slowly rising, we're gonna be up in the middle 60s at daybreak. Tomorrow the, uh, frontal boundary, which is stalled on top of this, will have drifted back up to our north and on a southwest breeze, it's gonna be a much warmer day, 83 with the high temperature, uh, clouds, uh, little bit of sunshine, but, uh, another shower or thunderstorm is a good bet in the afternoon and evening. Uh, as one last wave of low pressure comes eastward from the Ohio Valley. Behind that we will finally build in high pressure for a few days, uh, Sunday will be partly sunny at 80. Monday and Tuesday lots of sunshine, temperatures in the upper 70s. Cloudy skies, 60 degrees in Central Park. 96% humidity and a northeast wind at 13. Repeating the current temperature 60 and holding steady or slowly rising in midtown tonight.]

> May 24 [Those who were stressed by the fact that it's been dry for, oh, almost, uh, 18, 20 hours, uh, well, rest assured rain has returned. We'll have rain at times today and tonight. There's a flood watch through tomorrow morning for Morris, Warren, Sussex, Hunterdon, Somerset and Monmouth counties in New Jersey. Others may be added depending on how heavy the rain is tonight and tomorrow morning. Today's high 74, low tonight 64. And tomorrow and Saturday cloudy and cool, periods of rain, high 67 both days. Sunday ending rain in the morning will finally depart, give away to clearing, high 72 and much warmer weather next week. Currently in midtown with some rain, relative humidity is 89%. The air is calm. 68 degrees heading for 74.]

> May 25 [James, there is rain around the metropolitan area now, uh, most of it to the west and north of, uh, Manhattan, but, uh, it will become more widespread and prevalent as we go through the day today. We'll have rain a good part of the time tonight and tomorrow and tomorrow night and into Sunday morning. Parts of our area could get more than 2 or 3 inches of rain, primarily north and west of the city and there is concern about flooding and flood watches are in effect. The atmosphere will begin drying out during the afternoon on Sunday and, uh, the Mets and Yankees have a chance of getting in Sunday night's game, not much of a chance we don't think, tonight or tomorrow. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday of next week, though, sunny and much warmer, well on up into the 80s. Right now 65 and cloudy in Central Park. Temperature today going up only to 68.]

> May 26 [True artistry in the sky today. Sunshine, occasional clouds, going up to 76. Tonight palatable, clear, low 62 in midtown, the 50s in some suburbs. Tomorrow will be like it, easily, high temperature 78. And Friday shouldn't have any poor traits. Tons of clouds and sunshine, high 74 degrees. On Saturday, eh, we may see some grays. Mostly cloudy, windy, a chance for some rain, high 72. Currently in midtown 57, relative humidity 93%, wind out of the northeast at 3 miles per hour. 57 heading to 76 with sunshine today.]

> May 27 [Beautifully sunny day today with a high pressure area in charge. It's going up to 78 this afternoon. Clear tonight, low 56 in some suburbs, 64 in midtown. Then tomorrow sunshine will be followed by cloudiness and the wind will start to increase in the afternoon. There's a storm off the Carolina coast that hasn't moved anywhere in the last several days, but as the flow aloft becomes southerly, it probably will come up the coast and that can mean some wind-driven rain at times on Saturday with a high near 70 and even Sunday somewhat questionable, although the sky could start to clear in the afternoon, high 80. Currently in midtown 65 degrees, relative humidity 67%, winds out of the northeast at 6 miles per hour and it's sunny. 65 heading for 78.]

> May 28 [Huff and puff that it does but the wind is going to be relentless here, not just this afternoon, not just tonight, tomorrow and, to a certain extent, Sunday as well so keep that in mind. Some sunshine followed by thickening clouds this afternoon, otherwise high 72. It is dry, even this evening, we're gonna be a-O.K., but the problem is the rain comin' in a few hours after midnight. Then it's off and on during the course of tomorrow. Uh, our storm system's going to be weakening in the rain department. I guess that's the good news but when you factor in the wind, there's still going to be at least a minor tidal flooding and beach erosion. High tomorrow at about 70 degrees. Sunday's partly sunny, more humid with the high of 78 but don't you just note there could be a shower, thunderstorm kicking around. Right now it's 69 at LaGuardia, ditto Central Park, headed to 72 midtown.]

> May 29 [Well, good afternoon Cheryl. It's a cloudy day in New York City and it looks like we're going to see the clouds, a little bit of rain and drizzle at times, just kind of a damp, cool afternoon with a gusty wind and a high around 70. It'll be cloudy and breezy tonight, with occasional rain and drizzle, low 68. Tomorrow mostly cloudy, humid, a couple of showers, could be a thunderstorm. Several dry hours tomorrow, though, a high of 78 and then for Monday, clouds will break for some sun at times. It'll be humid with a chance for a shower or thunderstorm and a high of 78. Right now we have a 68 degree reading at Morristown, 71 at Islip. Cloudy and 68 in Central Park.]

> May 30 [Well, what we can see here is the scattering of showers across much of the tri-state area maybe between New York City and now westward. This coverage will increase as we head through the afternoon. It will become heavy at times as well late in the day and at night. As a result we have a flood watch out for just about the entire tri-state area except for eastern Long Island and eastern Connecticut. We'll have a high today only of 65. Low tonight falling back to 58. A couple of leftover showers tomorrow with the high of 74 degrees. Then it turns mostly sunny and warmer on Monday and Tuesday with highs both days in the upper 80s. Currently some light rain falling in Newark. In Central Park we have a cloudy sky, 62 degrees, relative humidity 77% and a wind out of the east at 14 gusting to 18 miles per hour. Repeating the current temperature 62 going up to 65 in midtown.]

> May 31 [We are going to continue to see showery weather over the next 12 to 24 hours. The good news is, eventually and well, soon, some much nicer weather. As soon as tomorrow, we are going to see beautiful, warmer weather with sunshine. We hit the mid-80s tomorrow but upper-80s by Tuesday. Wednesday, believe it or not, 90 degrees is what we're forecasting for midtown. The humidity comes up so while it will be nice and sunny, it won't necessarily be comfortable. The south shore of Long Island and coastal Connecticut will likely stay in the mid-80s. 61 at Newark, 60 at LaGuardia, and 59 at JFK right now. It's 59 in the park. Cloudy in New York. The relative humidity 93%, winds light and variable. 59 now we'll go to 70 in midtown today.]

> June 1 [I know Judy I had to look for them this morning, couldn't imagine where I left them, it'd been so long. At any rate, it will be a sunny to partly cloudy day this first day of June and temperatures warm into the 80s this afternoon. And it's clear tonight, the low about 65. Sunny tomorrow, getting close to 90 and then into the 90s with the humidity starting to build up Wednesday and Thursday, could even be some 94s or 96s showing up in the interior hot spots Wednesday and Thursday so an early summer heat wave. Next chance for a shower or thunderstorm comes on about Friday. Right now it is 65 and sunny in Central Park. Temperature today going up to 83.]

> June 2 [Temperatures in most places riding about 2 or 3 degrees above the pace of yesterday and in Central Park yesterday we topped out at 93 so a 96 or thereabouts this afternoon, uh, seems like a pretty good representative number but it could get to 100 in some of the interior hot spots around Morristown and Caldwell and Newark this afternoon and tomorrow a similar day and that AccuWeather RealFeel temperature will be up over 100. To... by the time we get to Friday, a cold front will be approaching that could produce a thunderstorm in the afternoon. The weekend, the humidity drops, the temperature should be trimmed by several degrees, highs in the 80s and both days should be at least partly sunny. Right now, though, it's 81 and sunny in Central Park and the temperature today going up to 96.]

> June 3 [Yeah, we really do Judy. Today probably the hottest day of the week, the hottest day of this heat wave, uh, and, uh, a real sizzler and because of the sunshine and the heat, uh, and, uh, a lack of wind, that combines to produce, eh, ozone, a combination of oxygen and sulfur compounds that are produced, uh, a lot by automobile exhaust and so we have, uh, an ozone alert in effect. If you're sensitive to that kind of thing, take it easy otherwise, you want to take it easy anyway cause it'll be 96 or 98 degrees this afternoon. Tomorrow partly sunny, still hot and humid, maybe an afternoon thunderstorm and then we get a nice break for the weekend. The sun returns Saturday maybe after some morning clouds, the humidity lowers, the high 86 and partly to mostly sunny on Sunday, the high 84. Right now it is79 and sunny in Central Park and the temperature today going up to a sizzling 96.]

> June 4 [Yeah, that is for sure Judy. There is relief on the way but for the rest of the day today it's going to be hazy and hot. Sunshine will mix with some clouds as we go through the afternoon but the temperature gets into the 90s anyway and maybe there's a thunderstorm this afternoon as a front passes through. It'll clear behind that tonight, temperatures drop into the 60s and a nice day tomorrow. Warm enough to be outside for the beach, 84, but the humidity down enough to make it comfortable. Clouds and sun on Sunday with a high of 82. There's a slight chance for a shower Sunday, better chance to hold off till Sunday night or Monday. Right now, uh, we have sunshine. It's 81 degrees in Central Park, the temperature today going up to 93.]

> June 5 [Well, you can already feel that heat and humidity out there as the sun, uh, has been really warming us up and, uh, we'll stay that way today. Some clouds and parts of the area could get a thunderstorm this afternoon or early tonight as a cold front passes through but not all of us seeing any shower activity. A high of 88, clear tonight a low of 68. Sunshine tomorrow and Wednesday, highs in the mid to upper 80s with fairly comfortable humidity levels and hot and more humid Thursday and also the Fourth of July with highs back up around the 90 degree mark. Right now we have 75 at Morristown, it's 74 at Islip, mostly and sunny and 75 in... 76 that is, in Central Park, west wind 6 and 82% humidity. 76 going up to 88 today.]

> June 6 [Mostly clear, comfortable conditions tonight and another nice day coming up tomorrow, sunshine, some high clouds starting to move in, afternoon temperatures low to middle 80s. Those clouds will lower and thicken tomorrow night and then we're, uh, a shot of seeing some showers late tomorrow night and Thursday. Those are remains of tropical storm Bill, uh, that, uh, pushing northeastward right now into extreme northwestern portions of Georgia, uh, with the rain already up into, uh, southern and central portions of Virginia this hour, uh, so we could see a bit of rain out of that, uh, late tomorrow night and Thursday and then for Friday, the Fourth and Saturday, it looks hot and humid as that system heads out to see. Partly sunny skies, afternoon temperatures in the low 90s. We have 80 degrees under a mostly clear sky in Central Park, a southwest breeze at 10. Repeating the current temperature 80 going down to 68 in midtown.]

> June 7 [Well, we are watching some rain on our 1010 WINS Doppler Radar. Most of it, uh, is east and south of the city, central and southern New Jersey and also the south shore of Suffolk County but they're a couple of little sprinkles, a couple of little drizzles scattered around. During the middle of the day in the afternoon, clouds will thin out. There'll be some sun. Temperatures get into the lower 80s. Then tomorrow it turns, uh, hot and humid with hazy sunshine and the high in the low 90s and a similar day on Saturday, although late Saturday there could be a shower or a thunderstorm as weak front passes through. Behind that front it's still hot Sunday, it's still sunny but the humidity should lower pretty noticeably in the Sunday, Monday time period. High temperatures those days around 90. Right now it is 71 and cloudy in Central Park. Temperature today going up to 82.]

> June 8 [Partly cloudy, warm, humid conditions overnight and a hot, steamy day coming up tomorrow, good deal of sunshine with afternoon readings in the middle 90s. AccuWeather RealFeel reading, though, reach 100 to 105. It's gonna be warm and stuffy tomorrow night, 78 for a low with a cold front finally arrives on the scene Wednesday with thunderstorms, uh, one more hot, humid day, however, temperatures getting near 90 degrees. That'll be it for the rest of the week, uh, Thursday it's only in the mid-70s, mostly cloudy skies, a few showers. Showers still a possibility Friday morning before clearing out, the high temperature near 80. And it looks like the weekend should be pretty nice. We have 77 degrees and a partly cloudy sky in Central Park, west wind at 8. Repeating the current temperature 77 going down to 74 in midtown.]

> June 9 [We're going to have a hot day today, the temperature climbing through the rest of the 70s in the next hour or so, getting to 85 to 90 degrees in time for lunch and then into the 90s for the afternoon. The projected high temperature 96 and we'll have high humidity, the wind'll pick up a little bit out of the west - won't help that much, though. Thunderstorm chance is quite low today. Then tonight quite warm, only dropping to 78. Tomorrow very warm, humid, clouds and sunshine, a couple of thunderstorms especially in the afternoon and evening high 88. Thursday looks to be cooler, plenty of cloudiness, a high 78. Friday, cloudy to partly sunny with a thunderstorm or two, the high 80 degrees. Currently in midtown 77, the relative humidity 81%. Wind light and variable, partly sunny 77, heading for 96.]

> June 10 [Well, it's humid but it's not so hot with the clouds this afternoon, high temperature 84 degrees. As a matter of fact, some areas picking up a shower or thunderstorm, most notably over parts of Suffolk County but also one now developing for WINS LiveScan Doppler Radar along the part of 280 stretching out over Essex County, all of it moving off to the east, southeast. Once again we'll manage 84 this afternoon, still a shower, thunderstorm around early tonight, then partial clearing late with the low of 68 degrees. Tomorrow mostly cloudy and even cooler, believe it or not, with the high of 78, although it still could shower in the afternoon. Oh ho! Come tomorrow night and Friday, we get soaked! Friday's high 82. Right now it's 86 Newark, 83 with clouds. Central Park managing only 84 this afternoon in midtown.]

> June 11 [Exactly right. Cloudiness, there can be a few sunny breaks, there can be a shower from time to time. It's not going to be a cold day but it's a lot cooler than it's been recently. 67 currently turning to 74 this afternoon. A few showers and a thunderstorm likely tonight into tomorrow. Low tonight 66. Then tomorrow afternoon clouds and sunshine with a high 82. Could be a thunderstorm late tomorrow or tomorrow night, the low 70. Then things should settle down for the weekend. Saturday partly to mostly sunny and less humid, high 84. Sunday mostly sunny, high 86 degrees. Currently there's 67, relative humidity 86%. Winds out of the east, northeast at 8. Plenty of cloudiness, shower here and there. 67 heading for 74.]

> June 12 [Well, most areas the rain has moved on. We still find some shower activity over Suffolk County, Long Island, northbound into parts of Connecticut but even there the rain will stop within the next hour or so. We're gonna be left with a partly cloudy night, low temperature tonight overnight at 68 degrees. Tomorrow a pretty good start to the weekend. Sunshine, some clouds, a warm breeze but not as humid as today with a high of 84 degrees. Dry and comfortable tomorrow night, clear to partly cloudy. Low 60 in the suburbs and 68 in midtown. Sunday, a mixture of clouds and sunshine, a high again of 84. Now there could be a shower or thunderstorm some point Sunday night and Monday, otherwise for Monday partly cloudy to partly sunny, high 82. Partly sunny, warm, little more humid on Tuesday and a high of 84. Right now it's 72, mostly cloudy in Central Park. Winds to the west at 3 miles per hour. 100% humidity. Repeating the current temperature 72 going down to 68 in midtown.]

> June 13 [It'll be mostly cloudy today and tonight, couple of showers and a thunderstorm, the high 78. Tonight's low near 68. Tomorrow humid with changing amounts of clouds and sun as well as a chance for a shower or thunderstorm, high 84. All this caused by the action of warm, humid air climbing over the retreating, slightly drier air that we had during the weekend. Wednesday as a weak cool front approaches, warm and humid with times of clouds and sunshine, a thunderstorm possible, high 88. Behind the front not much temperature change but probably less humid for Thursday, partly sunny, high 86. Currently it's 72, the relative humidity 87%, wind light and variable. 72 heading for 78.]

> June 14 [We played down the shower and we're mentioning just a brief shower and a few spots this morning. There are a few scattered across northwestern New Jersey, a batch went across the Rockland, Westchester county area a few hours ago and are now in central Connecticut, but most areas getting nothing. Maybe a thunderstorm occurs late this afternoon, this evening, as a cool front arrives ahead of it, going to 84. Partly cloudy later tonight, the low 70. Tomorrow partly sunny, less humid, a fine day, high 86. Friday, times of clouds and sunshine, a slight chance for a shower or thunderstorm as the next cold front approaches, high 86. Not much cooling behind it, though. Saturday some sunshine and some clouds, high 84 degrees. Currently in midtown it's 73. The relative humidity is 85%. Wind light and variable 73 heading for 84.]

> June 15 [It's been sunny so far. It'll stay that way all day, going to 86 this afternoon with low humidity. Clear to partly cloudy tonight, low 72. Tomorrow there'll be an increase in cloudiness and also humidity. A shower or thunderstorm could occur as a weak cool front approaches from the northwest. Best chance for that is in the afternoon, high 84. And behind the front, uh, a day like today on Saturday, it appears partly to mostly sunny, high 84 degrees. Then the humidity increases again on Sunday. Warm and humid, a mixture of clouds and sunshine, high 86. Currently it's 71 degrees in midtown, relative humidity 68%. Wind out of the north at 6 miles per hour. 71 heading for 86 this afternoon.]

> June 16 [There are a few showers that'll pass just to the north of the city in the next hour or two but the next batch is not coming until later. So we're gonna say that the best chance of the showers and thunderstorms will be later on this afternoon and this evening. Anything before that would be just a hit or miss kind of thing. Temperature today going well up into the 80s in any case. Then tonight settle back for the 70 degree mark. Tomorrow we're expecting, uh, a mixture of clouds and sunshine, slight chance of a thunderstorm, could be that all the moisture is offshore, the high 82. Sunday looks like a fine day: sunny, warm, rather humid, high 86 degrees, standard mid-to-late July weather. Monday variable cloudiness, warm and humid, a couple of showers and thunderstorm, the high 86. Currently in midtown, with sunshine, 74 degrees, relative humidity 66%, wind out of the west southwest at 9 miles per hour. 74 heading to 84.]

> June 17 [We're going to have some showers and thunderstorms forming around the area during the course of the day, although nothing is imminent right now and it appears that most places are not going to get anything until this afternoon or this evening, whereupon there will be some showers and thunderstorms. Today's high near 82, backing down to only 72 tonight. Any shower or thunderstorm that forms tonight, tomorrow, or through Wednesday can be heavy, but again the majority of the time it won't actually be raining. Tomorrow's high 82, Wednesday's high 80. Thursday mostly cloudy and humid. There still can be a shower or thunderstorm, the high 84 degrees. Currently in midtown the relative humidity is 95%. The wind's out of the south at 7 miles per hour. 71 degrees in midtown, heading for 82.]

> June 18 [Right Judy. It is going to rain but the important thing to keep in mind is even when it does rain, it can really pour, it can be a lot of lightning, thunder and strong winds. The actual number of hours that it rains in a give 12-hour period, usually less than 2. So, most of the time you can go about regular activities, just keep an eye on the sky and an ear right here. Going to 82 today, down to 70 tonight, up to 80 tomorrow. Thursday clouds and sunshine, a shower or thunderstorm, high 84. Then Friday partly sunny and warm, high 86 degrees. Currently we see no showers upstream from us. To the south and west there are some in central Connecticut, retreating to the northeast. Currently in midtown 71, relative humidity 100%, wind south at 6. 71 heading for 82.]

> June 19 [Showers and, uh, a couple of thunderstorms are still in the area but the back edge is moving northeastward across central New Jersey. If it holds together, these showers will be out of the way by 9:00 or so. There are a couple of small showers showing up to the southwest of there so it may not be totally dry the rest of the morning, but probably nothing heavy. Showers and thunderstorms potentially damaging and potentially flooding, though, can occur later this afternoon and again tonight. Today's high temperature 80 degrees... sounds like I'm underwater... 80 degrees going down to 70 tonight, then up to 80 tomorrow. We expect sunshine to increase on Friday and Saturday, much less chance of any rain, afternoon temperature in the 80s. Currently in midtown 71 degrees, relative humidity 100%, going up to 80 this afternoon.]

> June 20 [Well, so far so good here this afternoon. WINS Doppler Radar not picking up any activity. We still have, uh, this front however in the region so there is at least a possibility that, uh, a few spots could see a shower or thunderstorm this afternoon or early evening. Otherwise, partly sunny, humid, low 80s for a high temperature and tonight just a few clouds, maybe a bit of fog forming in some of the suburbs late tonight. 70 in midtown with 60s in the suburbs. And then for the next couple of days, uh, this boundary is finally out of here, uh, we're just left with, uh, a ridge of high pressure giving us, uh, sunshine and warm weather. 86 tomorrow, 92 degrees on Saturday. Sunday looks to be a breezy, very warm, humid day with some sunshine, could see an afternoon or evening thunderstorm as the front does approach. Currently 79 in Caldwell, 76 degrees and sunshine in Central Park, a southwest breeze at 9. Repeating the current temperature 76 going up to 82 in midtown.]

> June 21 [Well, Lee, after all the showers and even severe weather that we've had this week and calm weather is certainly welcome. It's going to be gorgeous with sunshine, low humidity and a high of 88 degrees this afternoon. It'll be clear tonight, low 72. Hot and becoming more humid tomorrow, mostly sunny. A high of 92 and a real scorcher for Sunday, humidity and a high of 94. Now there could be a thunderstorm late in the day or at night on Sunday. Then it'll be cooler and less humid with some sunshine on Monday. Right now we have 71 at Caldwell. At Islip it's 72. It's sunny in Central Park, 68% humidity and a calm wind. 72 right now going up to 88.]

> June 22 [Tonight will be warm and humid. The skies will stay clear, low 76 degrees. Ah, it'll stay muggy tomorrow with a mix of clouds and sun. There's a chance of a thunderstorm late tomorrow as well as tomorrow night. High 94 through the afternoon and tomorrow night's low 78 degrees. Monday, clouds and sun. Not as warm, there's still the chance of a thunderstorm, especially south of the city. Monday's high 85 and then Tuesday and Wednesday will bring clouds and sun and possibly a thunderstorm either day. Tuesday's high 80 and Wednesday's high 82. 86 degrees right now in Central Park. The winds are west at 7 miles per hour. 51% relative humidity. It's 88 at both LaGuardia airport and in Newark.]

> June 21 [We're still watching one or two little light showers on 1010 WINS Doppler Radar into central and southern New Jersey but for the most part, through the tri-state area today will be a dry day. Sun, uh, mixed with clouds and, uh, not as hot as yesterday, not 90s today, but middle 80s, uh, generally and then fair tonight low 70 or so in the city but into the 60s in many suburbs. Partly to mostly sunny tomorrow, high 82. Mostly sunny Wednesday, the high 84. Next chance of showers and thunderstorms comes, uh, Thursday and also into Friday. Right now it is 77 and mostly sunny in Central Park, temperature today going up to 84.]

> June 22 [Just some scattered high clouds today, otherwise it will be a mostly sunny day and temperatures get to the low 80s and the humidity, eh, under control so that 82 this afternoon should be pretty tolerable. And a clear, comfortable night tonight, low 66 in midtown, 60 in many suburbs, even, the uh, well, middle 50s in some of the coolest northern and western suburbs, so a nice night for the middle of summer. Tomorrow mostly sunny, high 84. Sun followed by clouds Thursday, high again 84. And we start to pick up the chance for a shower or thunderstorm Friday and that chance stays with us Saturday and probably Sunday. Right now it is 70 and mostly sunny in Central Park and the temperature today going up to 82.]

> June 23 [Well it's definitely been a very nice start to the week, uh, you're gonna love this afternoon but then things begin to change. Well, we'll give you the good news first: sunshine, nice this afternoon's high about 84. Clear to partly cloudy tonight, a low of 68. And moisture begins to return from the south tomorrow so sun will give way to clouds. It'll become more humid in the afternoon with a high of 80. A shower tomorrow night. Then, uh, a shower or thunderstorm at any time and more humid Friday and Saturday, up to 80 on Friday and about 84 on Saturday. Right now it's 76 at White Plains, 75 at Bridgeport, mostly sunny and 78 in Central Park, 57% humidity and a south wind at 3. It's 78 and it's going up to 84 today.]

> June 24 [Well, a gusty wind and the humidity, two factors that, uh, go against the good hair day this afternoon. We'll have clouds, sun, high temperature 81 degrees but more cloud cover even tonight. But if there's a shower, that's well after midnight. Low temperature 68 degrees and that's pretty much a similar bet tomorrow morning, maybe a brief shower here and there, otherwise mostly cloudy. Now starting tomorrow afternoon, uh, more numerous showers than a thunderstorm, so this is where you're definitely gonna need the umbrella with a high temperature of 76 degrees. Over the weekend, the balance of the time it's going to be sunny, warm, humid, highs of 84 and 86. Yes, there will be a thunderstorm but, I tell you what: at least 75 to 85% of the weekend rain free so don't cancel outdoor plans yet. It's 73 in West Hampton, 79, mostly sunny in Central Park, going to 81 this afternoon in midtown.]

> June 25 [We have a lot of cloudiness today. There can be a shower from time to time, most of the time just the clouds, a little bit of drizzle. It's going up to 76. Humid tonight, a shower or thunderstorm, low 70. The weekend, changeable. Sometimes the sun'll be out. It'll get warmer than today. Going to 82 tomorrow, 86 on Sunday but parts of the area will also get a thunderstorm each day so keep an eye on the sky and an ear right here as those approach. Monday and Tuesday, more of the same kind of weather, the pattern not really changing that much. Currently in midtown it's 71 degrees and cloudy, the relative humidity is 100%, winds out of the southwest, 5 miles per hour. 71 heading to 76.]

> June 26 [For a change we're not talking about a lot of thunderstorms popping up in midday as we have the past two or three afternoons but there can still be one or two of them around but again a much less active afternoon around the tri-state than what we've grown accustomed to earlier this week. Still it'll be warm and humid, with clouds and sun and a high of 84. Tonight it's humid, uh, a leftover shower or thunderstorm, mainly early, low 72. Tomorrow, much like today. Partly sunny, warm and humid but watch for a shower and thunderstorm in the afternoon, the high 84. Looks like Friday the most active day for the rest of the week. Better chance for showers and thunderstorms, the high 82. Then for Saturday, some intervals of sunshine, warm and humid, maybe a thunderstorm much like today, Saturday's high 84. It's 81 in Morristown now and 79 at Teterboro, 75 and partly sunny in Central Park, relative humidity 87%. The wind is variable at 5 miles per hour. Repeating the current temperature 75 going up to 84 in midtown.]

> June 27 [James, our weather's going to deteriorate as the day progresses. Looking at 1010 WINS Live Doppler Radar right now we see an area of rain and thunderstorms moving up through central Delaware, getting over to the southern tip of New Jersey at this hour. It's making slow progress so, a good bit of the afternoon around the tri-state will be dry but as we get closer to the evening rush hour, the chance for rain will go up rather steadily, our high about 80 because of a lack of sun in most areas this afternoon and then wet tonight with a low of 72. The clouds will begin to break for some sun tomorrow. There'll be a warm and humid day with a shower or thunderstorm in parts of the area but overall it'll end up being a drier day with high temperature tomorrow getting up to about, uh, 84. Saturday variable cloudiness and humid, another shower and thunderstorm or two around, the high 84. Still unsettled on Sunday with some sunshine, the high 86. Right now it's 79 degrees in Teterboro and in West Hampton, 77 and partly sunny in Central Park, relative humidity humidity 84%, the wind northeast at 6. Repeating the current temperature 77 going up to 80 in midtown.]

> June 28 [Oh we are keeping tabs on WINS Live Scanner Doppler Radar. While nothing's cooking at this point in time, that rain that I was talking about out over, uh, parts of Delaware and parts of south Jersey continues to creep slowly northward on up into, uh, Salem County at this point in time. Not quite Ocean County but while it's going to be mostly cloudy at this point in time for the next couple of hours with the high temperature of 82 degrees with some fog, we are going to pick up a period of rain and a thunderstorm or two very late this afternoon into tonight with the low of 72 degrees, so yes we will need the umbrella. Tomorrow turns, uh, partly sunny but there's still going to be a shower or thunderstorm around with the high of 84 degrees. Saturday turns yet more active with more numerous showers and thunderstorms and a high of 84. We won't dry it out completely until next week unfortunately. Right now it's 80 Caldwell, 79 with the clouds Central Park, managing 82 in midtown.]

> June 29 [James, uh, we continue to not see any significant rainfall on our 1010 WINS Doppler Radar in the immediate tri-state area but we are starting to see some thunderstorms developing, uh, in, uh, extreme southern New Jersey, there's actually one just south of Philadelphia and other showers south of, uh, Cape May in the Atlantic Ocean moving northward so, there will be showers and thunderstorms around the tri-state this afternoon and on into tonight, uh, any of them can produce drenching downpours and local flooding and that's the reason the flood watch remains in ef, in effect. Our high today will be in the low to middle 80s, uh, low tonight in the low 70s. Partial sunshine for tomorrow, chance for a shower or thunderstorm, high about 84 and then, uh, partly sunny Wednesday, could be an afternoon thunderstorm, maybe it gets up to 86 or 88 on Wednesday and perhaps close to 90 for Thursday and Friday. Right now 76 and partly sunny in Central Park. Temperature today going up to 84.]

> June 30 [Well, uh, Katherine, yes, and, uh, the reason why there's going to be so much sun, high pressure both at the surface and aloft is going to start to build. Now we've been talking about that quite frequently during this, uh, very wet and humid pattern over the past two weeks. The high pressure has been, uh, located or positioned over the western Atlantic. Finally now it's gonna overspread the landmass and that will contribute to some hot weather later on this week too. But first of all, some dense fog overnight, uh, it's already occurring at J.F.K. where the visibility is 1/16th of a mile. Temperatures are going to remain in the mid-70s tomorrow. Warm, humid day, high of about 86. Slight chance for a thunderstorm and then Thursday and Friday, well, we'll be at least 90 and probably hitting Friday, uh, 92 degrees so get ready for the hot weather. Mostly cloudy and 75 in midtown right now, the humidity 94%, the wind east 3 miles per hour. It's again mostly cloudy. Repeating the current temperature 75, we're heading down to 74.]

> July 1 [James, the, trend over the next few days around these parts is going to be for the sun to be out longer, for there to be less in the way of thunderstorm activity and that means it's going to get warmer. Today will turn out, at least partly sunny and temperatures will get on up into the, uh, middle 80s. Then it's partly cloudy tonight with a low in the 70s. Hazy sunshine tomorrow and also Friday, with high temperatures around 90, could even get into the 90s on Friday and right now, Saturday also looks, uh, to be reasonably sunny and the temperature still getting up to around 90. Right now it is 77 and partly sunny in Central Park, humidity 93% and the wind is calm. Repeating the current temperature 77, going up to 86 today.]
